Details
This document is the definition sheet for the FHIR-compliant ValueSet 'TI Organization Types', provided by gematik. This ValueSet standardizes the codes used in the `type` element of the Organization resource. Specifically, it includes multiple concrete organization types such as TI-Messenger-Provider, KIM-Provider, Trust Service Provider, and Identity Provider. By utilizing this definition, it becomes possible to exchange information about 'what kind of organization someone is' uniformly across different healthcare information systems. Using a FHIR ValueSet provides structured knowledge beyond a mere list of codes, helping prevent discrepancies in data interpretation among different vendors or regions, thereby contributing to the realization of advanced interoperability. This specification is based on FHIR 4.0.1 and plays an important role in standardizing organizational identification information for healthcare information exchange.
