Demographics and other administrative information about an individual or animal receiving care or other health-related services.

A reference to a set of rules that were followed when the resource was constructed, and which must be understood when processing the content. Often, this is a reference to an implementation guide that defines the special rules along with other profiles etc.

Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element. Often, when used, the URL is a reference to an implementation guide that defines these special rules as part of it's narrative along with other profiles, value sets, etc.

The nationality of the patient.

Defines the author of the resource.

Part of the authorisation model. Upon creation of the resource this extension is set to the device that created it.

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.

Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).

There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.

Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions.

The patient’s identification number. In transfer situations, use of the social security number (BSN) must comply with the Use of Social Security Numbers in Healthcare Act (Wbsn-z). In other situations, other number systems can be used, such as internal hospital patient numbers for example.

Patients are almost always assigned specific numerical identifiers.

An identifier for this patient.

Patients are almost always assigned specific numerical identifiers.

Whether this patient record is in active use. Many systems use this property to mark as non-current patients, such as those that have not been seen for a period of time based on an organization's business rules.

It is often used to filter patient lists to exclude inactive patients

Deceased patients may also be marked as inactive for the same reasons, but may be active for some time after death.

If a record is inactive, and linked to an active record, then future patient/record updates should occur on the other patient.

Need to be able to mark a patient record as not to be used because it was created in error.

Patient's full name.

A patient may have multiple names with different uses or applicable periods. For animals, the name is a "HumanName" in the sense that is assigned and used by humans and has the same patterns.

Need to be able to track the patient by multiple names. Examples are your official name and a partner name.

This slice represents the person's official name information, including given names, last name and possibly the partner's last name.

This .name element represents a Dutch name according to the zib NameInformation (v1.1, 2020) (except for the GivenName concept). A Dutch name is represented in FHIR as an ordinary international name, but is augmented using extensions to specify how the last name is built up according to the Dutch rules. See the guidance on .family and on .extension:nameUsage for more information. Systems that need to work in a Dutch context MUST support these extensions as specified here. In addition, systems MUST use the core elements according to the FHIR specifications to provide compatibility outside Dutch contexts. It is encouraged to provide a representation of the full name in the .text element.

Note 1: The zib cannot be represented straightforward in FHIR. Especially note the guidance on .given on how to map the FirstNames and Initials concepts, and on .prefix/.suffix on how to map the Titles concept.

Note 2: This element should only contain a person's official names. The GivenName concept is represented in another .name element with .name.use = usual.

Note 3: The examples illustrate how the zib is mapped to FHIR.

This element is not used in the context of Koppeltaal 2.0

A renderable, unencoded form.

The part of a name that links to the genealogy. In some cultures (e.g. Eritrea) the family name of a son is the first name of his father.

When implementing zib NameInformation, this representation should be constrcuted from the Prefix, LastName, PartnerPrefix and/or PartnerLastName concepts according to the NameUsage concept.

The prefix portion (e.g. voorvoegsel) of the family name that is derived from the person's own surname, as distinguished from any portion that is derived from the surname of the person's partner or spouse.

An example of a voorvoegsel is the "van" in "Ludwig van Beethoven". Since the voorvoegsel doesn't sort completely alphabetically, it is reasonable to specify it as a separate sub-component.

Partner’s official last name.

One of a person’s official first names or the initial if the full name is not known.

This element can be used to represent full given names or initials. extension:givenOrInitial SHALL be used on each repretition to specifiy if it's a full name (BR) or an initial (IN).

Zib compatibility

Tthis element is used to represent the FirstNames and Initials concepts of zib NameInformation, but the FHIR implementation deviates from the zib model. The zib defines these concepts as a list of official first names (as a single string) and a list of initials (as a single string), both optional. They both represent the official name(s) of a person and thus represent the same concept. In FHIR however, each first name is either a complete name or an initial, but not both. In addition, each name may be defined separately.

Therefore, the zib concepts are implemented here in the following way:

• Systems SHOULD use a .given element for each official first name that they know of (either as a full name or an initial), in order of appearance (as specified by FHIR).
• Each of these elements:
  • SHOULD be populated with the complete name if it is known, or with the initial if no more information is available.
  • As noted, it SHALL be augmented with extension:givenOrInitial.

Initials should thus not be communicated for each complete first name that is known, in contrast to what is specified by the zib. Receiving systems can recreate initials from the full names if needed.

If a system does however only have a list of official first names and a separate list of official initials, without knowing the relationship between these two, only the full names SHOULD be communicated, while an additional .name instance MAY be used to communicate the initials. It is expected that the second instance just contains the initials and no other information from the zib. Receiving systems MAY ignore the second instance.

Note 1: The GivenName concept should not be included here but in a separate .name instance where .use = usual.

Note 2: As specified by FHIR, multiple official first names MAY be combined in a single .given element (separated by spaces), as long as the .given elements can be concatenated to form the full first name representation, and the 'extension:givenOrInitial` is used to mark the element as containing either full names or the initials. This pattern is strongly discouraged as it is hard to determine if the value pertains multiple names or a single combined name containing spaces.

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.

Patient’s telephone number(s) or e-mail address(es).

People have (primary) ways to contact them in some way such as phone, email.

Details for all kinds of technology mediated contact points for a person or organization, including telephone, email, etc.

Implementation of the "TelephoneNumbers" concept of zib ContactInformation.

Please note that, although the zib concepts TelecomType and NumberType are functionally equivalent to the FHIR concepts ContactPoint.system and ContactPoint.use respectively, a mismatch occurs on the concept of mobile phone numbers; the zib uses the first concept and FHIR the second. For this reason, the ValueSet on ContactPoint.system is too narrow and the zib code will need to be communicated using the ext-CodeSpecification extension.

People have (primary) ways to contact them in some way such as phone, email.

Patient’s administrative gender.

The gender might not match the biological sex as determined by genetics or the individual's preferred identification. Note that for both humans and particularly animals, there are other legitimate possibilities than male and female, though the vast majority of systems and contexts only support male and female. Systems providing decision support or enforcing business rules should ideally do this on the basis of Observations dealing with the specific sex or gender aspect of interest (anatomical, chromosomal, social, etc.) However, because these observations are infrequently recorded, defaulting to the administrative gender is common practice. Where such defaulting occurs, rule enforcement should allow for the variation between administrative and biological, chromosomal and other gender aspects. For example, an alert about a hysterectomy on a male should be handled as a warning or overridable error, not a "hard" error. See the Patient Gender and Sex section for additional information about communicating patient gender and sex.

Patient’s date of birth. The date of birth is mandatory for a patient. A vague date (such as only the year) is permitted.

At least an estimated year should be provided as a guess if the real DOB is unknown There is a standard extension "patient-birthTime" available that should be used where Time is required (such as in maternity/infant care systems).

Age of the individual drives many clinical processes.

Indicates if the individual is deceased or not.

If there's no value in the instance, it means there is no statement on whether or not the individual is deceased. Most systems will interpret the absence of a value as a sign of the person being alive.

The fact that a patient is deceased influences the clinical process. Also, in human communication and relation management it is necessary to know whether the person is alive.

An indication stating whether the patient has died.

If there's no value in the instance, it means there is no statement on whether or not the individual is deceased. Most systems will interpret the absence of a value as a sign of the person being alive.

The fact that a patient is deceased influences the clinical process. Also, in human communication and relation management it is necessary to know whether the person is alive.

The date on which the patient died. A ‘vague’ date, such as only the year, is permitted.

The zib recognizes both the DeathIndicator (boolean) and DateOfDeath (datetime) concepts, whereas in FHIR only one of these concepts may be present. Therefore, if deceasedDateTime is present and has a value, its value can be mapped to DateOfDeath and DeathIndicator is assumed to be true.

The fact that a patient is deceased influences the clinical process. Also, in human communication and relation management it is necessary to know whether the person is alive.

A person’s marital status according to the terms and definition in the Dutch civil code.

Not all terminology uses fit this general pattern. In some cases, models should not use CodeableConcept and use Coding directly and provide their own structure for managing text, codings, translations and the relationship between elements and pre- and post-coordination.

BurgerlijkeStaatCodelijst

Most, if not all systems capture it.

Indicates whether the patient is part of a multiple (boolean) or indicates the actual birth order (integer).

Where the valueInteger is provided, the number is the birth number in the sequence. E.g. The middle birth in triplets would be valueInteger=2 and the third born would have valueInteger=3 If a boolean value was provided for this triplets example, then all 3 patient records would have valueBoolean=true (the ordering is not indicated).

For disambiguation of multiple-birth children, especially relevant where the care provider doesn't meet the patient, such as labs.

An indication stating whether the patient is of a multiple birth.

Where the valueInteger is provided, the number is the birth number in the sequence. E.g. The middle birth in triplets would be valueInteger=2 and the third born would have valueInteger=3 If a boolean value was provided for this triplets example, then all 3 patient records would have valueBoolean=true (the ordering is not indicated).

For disambiguation of multiple-birth children, especially relevant where the care provider doesn't meet the patient, such as labs.

Image of the patient.

Guidelines:

• Use id photos, not clinical photos.
• Limit dimensions to thumbnail.
• Keep byte count low to ease resource updates.

Many EHR systems have the capability to capture an image of the patient. Fits with newer social media usage too.

A contact party (e.g. guardian, partner, friend) for the patient.

Whereas the zib ContactPerson includes all (non-healthcare professional) persons that are involved in the care for a patient, FHIR distinguishes two use cases for these persons:

• The RelatedPerson resource is used to capture information about any person that is related to the patient, using the profile http://nictiz.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/nl-core-ContactPerson.
• Information about persons that should be contacted regarding the care for the patient is captured using the Patient.contact resource.

If a person is both a related person and a contact person, then some data duplication is inevitable. The nl-core-ContactPerson can be referenced using the extension in contact:contactPerson.

Need to track people you can contact about the patient.

A language which may be used to communicate with the patient about his or her health.

If no language is specified, this implies that the default local language is spoken. If you need to convey proficiency for multiple modes, then you need multiple Patient.Communication associations. For animals, language is not a relevant field, and should be absent from the instance. If the Patient does not speak the default local language, then the Interpreter Required Standard can be used to explicitly declare that an interpreter is required.

If a patient does not speak the local language, interpreters may be required, so languages spoken and proficiency are important things to keep track of both for patient and other persons of interest.

A reference from one resource to another.

Each occurrence of the zib HealthProfessional is normally represented by two FHIR resources: a PractitionerRole resource (instance of nl-core-HealthProfessional-PractitionerRole) and a Practitioner resource (instance of nl-core-HealthProfessional-Practitioner). The Practitioner resource is referenced from the PractitionerRole instance. For this reason, sending systems should fill the reference to the PractitionerRole instance here, and not the Practitioner resource. Receiving systems can then retrieve the reference to the Practitioner resource from that PractitionerRole instance.

In rare circumstances, there is only a Practitioner instance, in which case it is that instance which will be referenced here. However, since this should be the exception, the nl-core-HealthProfessional-Practitioner profile is not explicitly mentioned as a target profile.

Organization that is the custodian of the patient record.

There is only one managing organization for a specific patient record. Other organizations will have their own Patient record, and may use the Link property to join the records together (or a Person resource which can include confidence ratings for the association).

Need to know who recognizes this patient record, manages and updates it.

Link to another patient resource that concerns the same actual patient.

There is no assumption that linked patient records have mutual links.

There are multiple use cases:

• Duplicate patient records due to the clerical errors associated with the difficulties of identifying humans consistently, and
• Distribution of patient information across multiple servers.

This .name element represents a Dutch name according to the zib NameInformation (v1.1, 2020) (except for the GivenName concept). A Dutch name is represented in FHIR as an ordinary international name, but is augmented using extensions to specify how the last name is built up according to the Dutch rules. See the guidance on .family and on .extension:nameUsage for more information. Systems that need to work in a Dutch context MUST support these extensions as specified here. In addition, systems MUST use the core elements according to the FHIR specifications to provide compatibility outside Dutch contexts. It is encouraged to provide a representation of the full name in the .text element.

Demographics and other administrative information about an individual or animal receiving care or other health-related services.

The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes.

The only time that a resource does not have an id is when it is being submitted to the server using a create operation.

The metadata about the resource. This is content that is maintained by the infrastructure. Changes to the content might not always be associated with version changes to the resource.

A reference to a set of rules that were followed when the resource was constructed, and which must be understood when processing the content. Often, this is a reference to an implementation guide that defines the special rules along with other profiles etc.

Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element. Often, when used, the URL is a reference to an implementation guide that defines these special rules as part of it's narrative along with other profiles, value sets, etc.

The base language in which the resource is written.

Language is provided to support indexing and accessibility (typically, services such as text to speech use the language tag). The html language tag in the narrative applies to the narrative. The language tag on the resource may be used to specify the language of other presentations generated from the data in the resource. Not all the content has to be in the base language. The Resource.language should not be assumed to apply to the narrative automatically. If a language is specified, it should it also be specified on the div element in the html (see rules in HTML5 for information about the relationship between xml:lang and the html lang attribute).

A human language.

A human-readable narrative that contains a summary of the resource and can be used to represent the content of the resource to a human. The narrative need not encode all the structured data, but is required to contain sufficient detail to make it "clinically safe" for a human to just read the narrative. Resource definitions may define what content should be represented in the narrative to ensure clinical safety.

Contained resources do not have narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied). This may be necessary for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a "text blob" or where text is additionally entered raw or narrated and encoded information is added later.

These resources do not have an independent existence apart from the resource that contains them - they cannot be identified independently, and nor can they have their own independent transaction scope.

This should never be done when the content can be identified properly, as once identification is lost, it is extremely difficult (and context dependent) to restore it again. Contained resources may have profiles and tags In their meta elements, but SHALL NOT have security labels.

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.

There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.

The nationality of the patient.

Defines the author of the resource.

Part of the authorisation model. Upon creation of the resource this extension is set to the device that created it.

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.

Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).

There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.

Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions.

The patient’s identification number. In transfer situations, use of the social security number (BSN) must comply with the Use of Social Security Numbers in Healthcare Act (Wbsn-z). In other situations, other number systems can be used, such as internal hospital patient numbers for example.

Patients are almost always assigned specific numerical identifiers.

An identifier for this patient.

Patients are almost always assigned specific numerical identifiers.

Whether this patient record is in active use. Many systems use this property to mark as non-current patients, such as those that have not been seen for a period of time based on an organization's business rules.

It is often used to filter patient lists to exclude inactive patients

Deceased patients may also be marked as inactive for the same reasons, but may be active for some time after death.

If a record is inactive, and linked to an active record, then future patient/record updates should occur on the other patient.

Need to be able to mark a patient record as not to be used because it was created in error.

Patient's full name.

A patient may have multiple names with different uses or applicable periods. For animals, the name is a "HumanName" in the sense that is assigned and used by humans and has the same patterns.

Need to be able to track the patient by multiple names. Examples are your official name and a partner name.

This slice represents the person's official name information, including given names, last name and possibly the partner's last name.

This .name element represents a Dutch name according to the zib NameInformation (v1.1, 2020) (except for the GivenName concept). A Dutch name is represented in FHIR as an ordinary international name, but is augmented using extensions to specify how the last name is built up according to the Dutch rules. See the guidance on .family and on .extension:nameUsage for more information. Systems that need to work in a Dutch context MUST support these extensions as specified here. In addition, systems MUST use the core elements according to the FHIR specifications to provide compatibility outside Dutch contexts. It is encouraged to provide a representation of the full name in the .text element.

Note 1: The zib cannot be represented straightforward in FHIR. Especially note the guidance on .given on how to map the FirstNames and Initials concepts, and on .prefix/.suffix on how to map the Titles concept.

Note 2: This element should only contain a person's official names. The GivenName concept is represented in another .name element with .name.use = usual.

Note 3: The examples illustrate how the zib is mapped to FHIR.

Need to be able to track the patient by multiple names. Examples are your official name and a partner name.

Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.

Source of the definition for the extension code - a logical name or a URL.

The definition may point directly to a computable or human-readable definition of the extensibility codes, or it may be a logical URI as declared in some other specification. The definition SHALL be a URI for the Structure Definition defining the extension.

This concept indicates the last name or order of last names with which the person is to be addressed.

Use ConceptMap NaamgebruikCodelijst-to-HumanNameAssemblyOrder to translate terminology from the functional model to profile terminology in ValueSet HumanNameAssemblyOrder.

Identifies the purpose for this name.

Applications can assume that a name is current unless it explicitly says that it is temporary or old.

The use of a human name.

Allows the appropriate name for a particular context of use to be selected from among a set of names.

Specifies the entire name as it should be displayed e.g. on an application UI. This may be provided instead of or as well as the specific parts.

This element is not used in the context of Koppeltaal 2.0

A renderable, unencoded form.

The part of a name that links to the genealogy. In some cultures (e.g. Eritrea) the family name of a son is the first name of his father.

When implementing zib NameInformation, this representation should be constrcuted from the Prefix, LastName, PartnerPrefix and/or PartnerLastName concepts according to the NameUsage concept.

The prefix portion (e.g. voorvoegsel) of the family name that is derived from the person's own surname, as distinguished from any portion that is derived from the surname of the person's partner or spouse.

An example of a voorvoegsel is the "van" in "Ludwig van Beethoven". Since the voorvoegsel doesn't sort completely alphabetically, it is reasonable to specify it as a separate sub-component.

Prefix to the person’s own last name.

The portion of the family name that is derived from the person's own surname, as distinguished from any portion that is derived from the surname of the person's partner or spouse.

If the person's surname has legally changed to become (or incorporate) the surname of the person's partner or spouse, this is the person's surname immediately prior to such change. Often this is the person's "maiden name".
