Artifacts Summary

This page provides a list of the FHIR artifacts defined as part of this implementation guide.

Structures: Resource Profiles

These define constraints on FHIR resources for systems conforming to this implementation guide

CH Core Composition EPR

Base definition for a composition in the context of the electronic patient record (EPR).

CH Core Composition

Base definition for a composition with the CH Core profiles.

CH Core DocumentReference EPR

Base definition for a document reference in the context of the electronic patient record (EPR).

CH Core DocumentReference

Base definition for a document reference with the CH Core profiles.

CH Core Patient EPR

Core patient definition in the context of the electronic patient record (EPR). It is used to include the patient in an EPR document (referenced in Composition/DocumentReference).

CH Core Consent EPR

Base profile for a consent profile to document that a patient has an Electronic Patient Record (EPR) in Switzerland. The actual consent conditions are held within the EPR, this consent is the documentation in an organization that the patient has stated he has an EPR and this needs to be verified at the time of document publishing or reading. In addition a patient can reqeuest that specific information will not be published from the organization to the EPR. This can be documented with one or more references to encounters to exclude the consent for these.

CH Core Patient

The CH Core Patient is based upon the core FHIR Patient Resource and designed to meet the applicable patient demographic data elements in Switzerland. See also BFS for further information

ahvn13

The AHVN13 / NAVS13 - (abbreviation for new thirteen-digit Social Security number) - is an administrative identifier for natural persons in Switzerland. It is issued, announced and administered by the Central Compensation Office. It is available to all organisations and communities for which there is a legal basis.

EPR-SPID: The Central Compensation Office (ZAS; CCO) assigns and manages the new patient identification number according to the EPRA (EPR-SPID), which is only linked internally in the CCO with the AHV number. It maintains the UPI identification database (Unique Personal Identifier Database), which the EPR communities may access. The law regulates how the the EPR-SPID can be used.
