Extension: Is Selective

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/cqf-isSelective Version: 5.1.0
Standards status: Trial-use Maturity Level: 3 Responsible: HL7 International / Clinical Decision Support Computable Name: IsSelective
Other Identifiers: OID:2.16.840.1.113883.4.642.5.1668

Allows a given data requirement to be identified as “selective”, meaning that it can be used as an additive criteria to filter a population. A selective data requirement is guaranteed to define a subset (not necessarily proper) of the initial population of an artifact. If multiple data requirements are marked selective, they all apply (i.e. AND semantics).

This extension is useful for helping implementing systems determine which data requirements are expected to be most selective of the target population. A common use case is to identify a subset of the data requirements for an artifact as “selective”, meaning that they can be used as an initial filter to establish the overall set of data. For example, the selective requirements can be used to construct an initial query or queries for data, with the non-selective requirements used for subsequent filtering on the resulting data.
