1 Introduction
This page describes how a patient can manage his health care related appointments in a MedMij context using the HL7 FHIR Standard. Initially, this guide will contain information on how to request existing appointment information. Out of scope of this use-case are the make, cancel or change appointment features. There is an extension that can be implemented to allow subscription and notification features. Note that this is not part of the qualification. The functional requirements for this use case can be found in the functional design.
Note: This implementation guide builds on the general guidelines described in the use case overarching principles.
2 Use case: retrieve appointments
This FHIR implementation guide assumes that the PHR system is able to make a connection to the right XIS that contains the patient's information. It does not provide information on finding the right XIS nor does it provide information about security. Moreover, each transaction is performed in the context of a specific authenticated patient, for whose context (token) has been established using the authentication mechanisms described in the 'Afsprakenstelsel'. Each XIS Gateway is required to perform filtering based on the patient associated with the context for the request, so only the records associated with the authenticated patient are returned. For this reason, search parameters should not be included for patient identification.
2.1 Introduction
The goal of this use case is to give patients an overview of their appointments with all healthcare providers. The appointment information that is shared with the patient will contain start and end date/time, location, type of appointment, patient instructions, health care professionals present. Below is described how a PHR can retrieve this information and how a XIS should make this information available.
2.2 Actors involved
Actors | Systems | FHIR Capability Statements | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Name | Description | Role | Name | Description | Name | Description |
Patient | The user of a personal healthcare environment. | Request appointments from the XIS | PHR | Personal health record | CapabilityStatement: Client | FHIR Client requirements |
Healthcare professional | The user of a XIS | Serves appointments to the PHR | XIS | Healthcare information system | CapabilityStatement: Server | FHIR Server requirements |
2.3 Invocations
2.3.1 Client - PHR
2.3.1.1 Search for appointments
The PHR executes an HTTP GET conform to the FHIR RESTful and search specification against the XIS's Appointment endpoint. This search query URL is configurable by the PHR and has the following format:
GET [base]/Appointment?date=[date]
The PHR may use, and the XIS shall be capable of processing, the following parameters to configure the search query:
Observation | |||
---|---|---|---|
Name | Type | Description | Example |
date
|
date | Appointment date/time based on start date/time. | Retrieve appointments with a start date/time from 01-01-2018 onwards:
GET [base]/Appointment?date=gt2017-12-31 Retrieve appointments with start date/time from 01-01-2018 until 01-03-2018: GET [base]/Appointment?date=ge2018-01-01&date=lt2018-03-01 |
2.3.2 Server - XIS
The returned data to the PHR should conform to the HCIMs and their associate profiles listed in the table below.
MedMij uses the FHIR Packaging mechanism. This conveniently bundles all profiles, terminology, example material and other conformance resources you need into a single archive, which can be downloaded or installed using the appropriate FHIR tooling. This version of the information standard uses the following packages:
Note: packages use Semantic Versioning. Other versions can be used at will as long as they have the same major.minor number or a minor number higher than the stated version. |
Name NL | Name EN | FHIR Resource | URL profile |
Patient | Patient | Patient | http://fhir.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/nl-core-patient |
Zorgverlener | HealthProfessional | Practitioner | http://fhir.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/nl-core-practitioner |

Location | http://fhir.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/nl-core-location | ||
Afspraak | Appointment | Appointment | http://nictiz.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/eAfspraak-Appointment |
If a Location is not registered as separate data in relation to Organization data at the source system (especially at General Practitioner Systems (Huisartsen Informatie Systeem)), a Location resource with minimal data should be constructed as a forwarder to the Organization resource where the Appointment will take place (example). |
