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.

Due to the nature of the nationality core extension (which allows for a period to be placed next to the nationality and thus allows for different nationalities over time), the cardinality of the extension is left at 0..* instead of the zib cardinality of 0..1.

Code representing nationality of patient.

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.

The purpose of this identifier.

Applications can assume that an identifier is permanent unless it explicitly says that it is temporary.

Identifies the purpose for this identifier, if known .

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

A coded type for the identifier that can be used to determine which identifier to use for a specific purpose.

This element deals only with general categories of identifiers. It SHOULD not be used for codes that correspond 1..1 with the Identifier.system. Some identifiers may fall into multiple categories due to common usage. Where the system is known, a type is unnecessary because the type is always part of the system definition. However systems often need to handle identifiers where the system is not known. There is not a 1:1 relationship between type and system, since many different systems have the same type.

A coded type for an identifier that can be used to determine which identifier to use for a specific purpose.

Allows users to make use of identifiers when the identifier system is not known.

Patiëntnummer

If the value is a full URI, then the system SHALL be urn:ietf:rfc:3986. The value's primary purpose is computational mapping. As a result, it may be normalized for comparison purposes (e.g. removing non-significant whitespace, dashes, etc.) A value formatted for human display can be conveyed using the Rendered Value extension. Identifier.value is to be treated as case sensitive unless knowledge of the Identifier.system allows the processer to be confident that non-case-sensitive processing is safe.

Identifier zoals uitgegeven door ZorgTTP

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 accomodates the official parts of a Dutch name according to common international usage and optionally to the zib NameInformation v1.1 (2020). An official Dutch name is represented in FHIR as an ordinary international name, optionally augmented using extensions to specify how the last name is built up according to the Dutch rules if conformance to the zib is required. See the guidance on .family and on .extension:nameUsage for more information.

Systems that need to work in a Dutch context SHOULD support the extensions as specified in .given, .family and .extension:nameUsage. In addition, systems SHOULD use the core elements according to the FHIR specifications to provide compatibility outside Dutch contexts. This means that:

• If parts of the name are specified using one or more of the structured elements, the .text element SHOULD be populated with a rendered version of the full name.
• If parts of the family name are specified using the extensions in .family, the .family element SHOULD be populated with the full family name.

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.

A code that represents the preferred display order of the components of this human name.

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.

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".

Partner’s official last name.

This slice represents the name information normally used to address the person.

This .name element represents the Dutch given name ("roepnaam") according to the zib NameInformation v1.1 (2020).

Note 1: This element should only contain a person's unofficial name. The official names are represented in one or more other .name elements with .name.use = official.

Note 2: 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.

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

The cardinality mismatch between the zib (0..1) and FHIR (0..*) is explained by the containers TelephoneNumbers (0..*) and EmailAddresses (0..*) inside the ContactInformation model. The FHIR datatype ContactPoint does not have these containers.

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.

Implementation of the "EmailAddresses" concept of zib ContactInformation.

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.

Use ConceptMap GeslachtCodelijst-to-AdministrativeGender to translate terminology from the functional model to profile terminology in ValueSet AdministrativeGender.

Needed for identification of the individual, in combination with (at least) name and birth date.

Optional Extension Element - found in all resources.

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.

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.

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.

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.

An address expressed using postal conventions (as opposed to GPS or other location definition formats). This data type may be used to convey addresses for use in delivering mail as well as for visiting locations which might not be valid for mail delivery. There are a variety of postal address formats defined around the world.

This datatype defines a common basis for expressing all addresses around the world, but adds extensions to express Dutch addresses specifically, according to the zib AddressInformation v1.1 (2020). A Dutch Address still is a proper FHIR Address, which means that systems that cannot interpret the extensions will still be able to render and work with this datatype.

To have true compatibility an implementer SHOULD use the core Address parts as intended. To have addresses work for Dutch context, the implementer SHOULD in addition use the extension elements.

Separate address parts

The first addition is that Dutch addresses make certain address parts separately communicable. These parts are required for use in true Dutch systems when dealing with Dutch addresses, but may not have value for international systems when information gets sent abroad.

Custom address types

The second addition is that the zib defines its own ValueSet for address types, which can only be partially expressed using the FHIR Address datatype and requires a mapping to multiple elements. The table below explains how the zib concepts are mapped to the various FHIR elements (see the ConceptMaps http://nictiz.nl/fhir/ConceptMap/AdresSoortCodelijst-to-AddressUse and http://nictiz.nl/fhir/ConceptMap/AdresSoortCodelijst-to-AddressType as well). The code from the zib should also be included using the extension on Address.extension:addressType.

If Address.type is both then this is to be understood as a dual purpose address (postal and physical), unless a specific postal type address is added. Systems that support importing it like this are encouraged to do so, otherwise they may need to import this as two separate addresses.

Note: FHIR core defines the AD-use extension to further specify the postal address type. However, the ValueSet used in that extension doesn't completely match the zib ValueSet. Therefore, a custom extension has been made. This doesn't preclude the use of the AD-use extension.

May need to keep track of patient addresses for contacting, billing or reporting requirements and also to help with identification.

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.

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.

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.

The Identifier.assigner may omit the .reference element and only contain a .display element reflecting the name or other textual information about the assigning organization.

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 accomodates the official parts of a Dutch name according to common international usage and optionally to the zib NameInformation v1.1 (2020). An official Dutch name is represented in FHIR as an ordinary international name, optionally augmented using extensions to specify how the last name is built up according to the Dutch rules if conformance to the zib is required. See the guidance on .family and on .extension:nameUsage for more information.

Systems that need to work in a Dutch context SHOULD support the extensions as specified in .given, .family and .extension:nameUsage. In addition, systems SHOULD use the core elements according to the FHIR specifications to provide compatibility outside Dutch contexts. This means that:

• If parts of the name are specified using one or more of the structured elements, the .text element SHOULD be populated with a rendered version of the full name.
• If parts of the family name are specified using the extensions in .family, the .family element SHOULD be populated with the full family name.

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.
