HL7® Austria FHIR® Core Implementation Guide
1.1.0 - STU2

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.

HL7® AT Core Patient Profile

HL7® Austria FHIR® Core Profile for patient data in Austria. The HL7® AT Core Patient is based upon the core FHIR® Patient Resource and designed to meet the applicable patient demographic data elements in Austria. It identifies which core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets SHALL be present in the resource when using this profile. Note, this extension represents the common structure of Patient information within Austrian information systems.

HL7® AT Core ValueSet Profile

HL7® Austria FHIR® Core Profile for valuesets in Austria. The HL7® AT Core ValueSet is based upon the core FHIR® ValueSet Resource and defines the use of the OID extension.

Structures: Data Type Profiles

These define constraints on FHIR data types for systems conforming to this implementation guide.

HL7® AT Core Address Profile

HL7® Austria FHIR® Core Profile for address data in Austria. Note, this extension represents the common structure of address information within Austrian information systems. This extension does not restrict the documented information to Austrian adresses. Address information that does not fit into the given structure may be captured by Address Additional Information.

Structures: Extension Definitions

These define constraints on FHIR data types for systems conforming to this implementation guide.

Address Additional Information

HL7® Austria FHIR® Core Extension for the additional information part of the Austrian address.

Administrative Gender Addition

HL7® Austria FHIR® Core Extension for the administrative gender of a person (Patient, Practitioner, …). The extension is used to add the missing codes and is applied in case the code for administrative gender itself is set to ‘other’.

Patient Religion

HL7® Austria FHIR® Core Extension for the religion (registered in Austria) of a patient. The extension is used to encode the religious confession of a patient (only confessions registered in Austria). Furthermore, it uses the official HL7 AT CodeSystem for religion and is therefore aligned with the ELGA ValueSet, respectively.

System OID

HL7® Austria FHIR® Core Extension for the capturing of OID in ValueSets to reference the CodeSystem they come from. The extension is used to document the OID of the system of a code referenced in a ValueSet, to align FHIR with the HL7 Austria CDA document guidelines.

Testing Artifacts: TestScripts

These test definitions are available to FHIR test engines to verify systems are conforming to this implementation guide

HL7® AT Core TestScript - Patient Create

TestScript creating a patient resource conformant to the AT Core Patient profile on a FHIR Server. FHIR Client may use any input patient resource, but the script can provide an example patient: Andreas Bucher - HL7ATCorePatientExample04. Expected Result: Server accepts creation of Patient resource that is conformant to the AT Core Patient profile.

HL7® AT Core TestScript - Patient Update

TestScript updating an existing patient resource conformant to the AT Core Patient profile on a FHIR Server using the JSON format. FHIR Client may use any input patient resource, but the script can provide an example patient: Andreas Bucher - HL7ATCorePatientExample04 with an updated PI value of “11-22-33-44”. Expected Result: Server accepts update of Patient resource that is conformant to the AT Core Patient profile. The testscript uses a variable for the resource ID value which should match the Id of the resource being updated.

Example: Example Instances

These are example instances that show what data produced and consumed by systems conforming with this implementation guide might look like.

HL7ATCorePatientUpdateTestExample
Organization-example-f001-burgers

Real-world organization example (Burgers MC) from the HL7® FHIR® specification. Note that this resource uses nothing from this implementation guide. It just exists to be referenced in the patient example resources.
