OperationDefinition: Measure Data Requirements

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/cqfmeasures/OperationDefinition/Measure-data-requirements Version: 3.0.0
Active as of 2019-11-01 Computable Name: MeasureDataRequirements

Determines the effective data requirements for the measure, including known components and dependencies, and optionally informed by a version manifest.

Parameters

UseNameCardinalityTypeBindingDocumentation
INid0..1string

The logical id of the measure to analyze. The server must know the measure (e.g. it is defined explicitly in the server's measures)

INurl0..1uri

A canonical reference to a measure. The server must know the measure (e.g. it is defined explicitly in the server's measures

INversion0..1string

The version of the measure to analyze

INidentifier0..1string
(token)

A business identifier of the measure to be analyzed. The server must know the measure and the identifier must resolve unambiguously to a single measure on the server.

INperiodStart0..1date

The start of the measurement period. In keeping with the semantics of the date parameter used in the FHIR search operation, the period will start at the beginning of the period implied by the supplied timestamp. E.g. a value of 2014 would set the period start to be 2014-01-01T00:00:00 inclusive

INperiodEnd0..1date

The end of the measurement period. The period will end at the end of the period implied by the supplied timestamp. E.g. a value of 2014 would set the period end to be 2014-12-31T23:59:59 inclusive

INparameters0..1Parameters

Any additional input parameters for the measure. Parameters defined in this input will be bound by name to parameters defined in the measure library (or referenced libraries). Parameter types are mapped to CQL as specified in the Using CQL section of this implementation guide. If a parameter appears more than once in the input Parameters resource, it is represented with a List in the input CQL. If a parameter has parts, it is represented as a Tuple in the input CQL.

INsystem-version0..*canonical

Specifies a version to use for a system, if the measure or value set does not already specify which one to use. The format is the same as a canonical URL: [system]|[version] - e.g. http://loinc.org|2.56

INcheck-system-version0..*canonical

Edge Case: Specifies a version to use for a system. If a measure or value set specifies a different version, an error is returned instead of the package. The format is the same as a canonical URL: [system]|[version] - e.g. http://loinc.org|2.56

INforce-system-version0..*canonical

Edge Case: Specifies a version to use for a system. This parameter overrides any specified version in the measure and value sets (and any it depends on). The format is the same as a canonical URL: [system]|[version] - e.g. http://loinc.org|2.56. Note that this has obvious safety issues, in that it may result in a value set expansion giving a different list of codes that is both wrong and unsafe, and implementers should only use this capability reluctantly. It primarily exists to deal with situations where specifications have fallen into decay as time passes. If the value is override, the version used SHALL explicitly be represented in the expansion parameters

INmanifest0..1canonical

Specifies an asset-collection library that defines version bindings for code systems referenced by value set(s) or other artifacts used in the artifact. When specified, code systems identified as depends-on related artifacts in the measure or dependent libraries have the same meaning as specifying that code system version in the system-version parameter.

INinclude-dependencies0..1boolean

Specifies whether to follow known dependencies of the artifact as part of the analysis, recursively (default = true)

INinclude-components0..1boolean

Specifies whether to follow known components of the artifact as part of the analysis, recursively (default = true)

OUTreturn1..1Bundle

The result of the requirements operation is a module-definition Library that returns the computed effective requirements of the artifact.

The requirements operation supports the ability of a repository to determine the effective requirements of an artifact, including terminology usage (code systems, value sets, and direct-reference codes), parameters, dependencies (artifacts), and data requirements
