Publication of ehealth-task-episodeOfCare Mapping Specification

Details

This page is part of the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) specification provided by eHealth Infrastructure in Denmark, specifically detailing the mapping definition for an extension called 'ehealth-task-episodeOfCare'. This specification is based on FHIR v4.0.1 and aims to ensure interoperability with existing standards like HL7 v3, particularly concerning the detailed structuring of the concept of an Episode of Care. It is provided as part of a package named `dk.ehealth.sundhed.fhir.ig.core#2.9.0`, offering mapping information in XML, JSON, and TTL formats. Such technical specifications are foundational for accurately exchanging complex clinical concepts, such as the Episode of Care, between different Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems or healthcare information systems. In Japan's medical IT environment, establishing standardized data structures and ensuring interoperability is critically important. This specification provides a concrete guideline for that purpose. By utilizing this extension, it becomes possible to exchange comprehensive 'Episode of Care' data—which includes timeframes and related tasks—beyond mere consultation records. This capability is essential for realizing advanced data linkage and clinical decision support.
