Scope

This transaction is used by the Policy Source to add, update, or delete single privacy policies. Correspondingly, the following HTTP methods SHALL be supported: POST, PUT, and DELETE.

HTTP Method POST

Trigger Event

The request body SHALL represent a single Consent resource compliant to the PpqmConsent profile.

The request SHALL be sent to [baseUrl]/Consent.

Expected Actions

Upon receiving the HTTP POST request, the Policy Repository SHALL:

• Validate the Consent resource contained in the request body.
• Persist the policy set represented by this Consent.
• Create a PPQ-3 response according to the transaction outcome.

Response Message

The PPQ-3 response SHALL be created according to the section 3.1.0.8 of the FHIR R4 specification.

HTTP Method PUT

Trigger Event

The Policy Source uses HTTP method PUT to submit a new or update an existing single privacy policy.

The request SHALL be sent to [baseUrl]/Consent?identifier=[uuid].

Expected Actions

The Policy Repository SHALL implement the Conditional Update pattern described in section 3.1.0.4.3 of the FHIR R4 specification.

Upon receiving the HTTP PUT request, the Policy Repository SHALL:

• Validate the Consent resource contained in the request body. In particular, it SHALL be validated that the policy set ID is the same as in the HTTP URL.
• Persist the policy set represented by this Consent.
• Create a PPQ-3 response according to the transaction outcome.

Response Message

The PPQ-3 response SHALL be created according to the section 3.1.0.4 of the FHIR R4 specification.

• Create a PPQ-3 response according to the transaction outcome.

Response Message

The PPQ-3 response SHALL be created according to the section 3.1.0.7 of the FHIR R4 specification.

Security Considerations

TLS SHALL be used. For user authentication and authorization, the IUA profile with extended access token SHALL be used as described in the Amendment mHealth of Annex 5, Section 3.2. Consequently, the Mobile Privacy Policy Feed [PPQ-3] transaction SHALL be combined with the Incorporate Access Token [ITI-72] transaction of the IUA profile.

The traceparent header is required, as described in Trace Context header.

The involved actors SHALL record audit events. The Policy Source SHALL use the ATNA FHIR Feed option thereby, the Policy Repository SHALL use either the ATNA FHIR Feed option or the ATNA TLS Syslog option.

The audit records correspond to the ones of PPQ-1, with the following adaptations:

• EventTypeCode SHALL be set to EV("PPQ-3", "e-health-suisse", "Mobile Privacy Policy Feed").
• The Destination User ID SHALL be the FHIR endpoint URI of the Policy Repository.
