The details of a healthcare service available at a location.

8.8.1 Scope and Usage

The HealthcareService resource is used to describe a single healthcare service or category of services that are provided by an organization at a location.
The location of the services could be virtual, as with telemedicine services.

Common examples of HealthcareServices resources are:

Allied Health
Clinical Neuropsychologist
Podiatry Service
Smallville Hospital Emergency Services
Respite care provided at a nursing home or hostel
24hr crisis telephone counseling service
Information, advice and/or referral services; Disability, Telecommunications
Rural TeleHealth Services
Hospital in the home
Yellow Cabs
Pharmacy
Active Rehab
Social Support
Drug and/or alcohol counseling
Day Programs, Adult Training & Support Services
Consulting psychologists and/or psychology services
Group Hydrotherapy
Little River Home Maintenance
CT Head Scan w/o Contrast
CT Head Scan with Contrast
CT Head+Chest Scan with Contrast

HealthcareService resources do not represent Computer related Services (not SOA)

Example uses of HealthcareService resources are:

National Services Directory - Consumer Focus
National Services Directory - Practitioner Referrals Searching
Organization's Client Portal - to locate services / book appointments
Address book of services for Referrals
including references to Questionnaires for assessments that are required as part of the referral
Health Network internal directory Used for tracking available services offered internally, and also those offered by business partners.
This information may also include costing information.
Catalog of schedulable services or activities

8.8.2 Boundaries and Relationships

The HealthcareService resource can be used with the Schedule resource to define actual availability of the service. This would be done by using the Schedule's Actor property.

When creating an Appointment, the HealthcareService is to be assigned to one of the participants.
It is up to the scheduling system to determine if the service is available and can be accepted.

The HealthcareService resource is used with the following resources:

Organization: The organization provides the services, the healthcareservice describes the services
ServiceRequest: This is a subject specific request for a specific service, it may be to a specific healthcare service, and/or simply a coded service value. The granularity included in the request codes may be finer than defined in the healthcare service.
OrganizationAffiliation: Might constrain a list of healthcare services that are available between 2 organizations
Location: Specifies the place where the service(s) are offered/available within.
