Details
This document outlines the technical specification for the search parameter 'careteamParticipant', defined within eHealth Infrastructure version 8.0.0, which adheres to FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) R4. This parameter functions by checking for a specific extension on the participant resource within the Appointment resource. Specifically, it is defined using the expression `Appointment.participant.extension('http://ehealth.sundhed.dk/fhir/StructureDefinition/ehealth-ext-careteam')`. The specification supports complex searching, allowing multiple participants and conditions to be combined using both AND (multipleAnd) and OR (multipleOr) logic. This capability enables advanced searches based on the composition of the care team associated with an appointment. It contributes to improving information exchange and streamlining clinical process management among healthcare providers. Published as of May 6, 2021, this specification serves as a standard data exchange format within Denmark's electronic health infrastructure for sophisticated, care-team-based information retrieval. The underlying framework is based on FHIR 4.0.1.
