This page is part of the CARIN Digital Insurance Card (v0.1.0: STU 1 Ballot 1) based on FHIR R4. The current version which supercedes this version is 1.0.0. For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions

This page provides a list of the FHIR artifacts defined as part of this implementation guide.
The following artifacts define the specific capabilities that different types of systems are expected to have in order to comply with this implementation guide. Systems conforming to this implementation guide are expected to declare conformance to one or more of the following capability statements.
C4DIC CapabilityStatement |
This Section describes the expected capabilities of the C4DIC Server actor which is responsible for providing responses to the queries submitted by the C4DIC Requestors. |
These define constraints on FHIR resources for systems conforming to this implementation guide
C4DIC Coverage |
Data that reflect a payer’s coverage of the member. |
C4DIC Organization |
This profile builds upon the US Core Organization profile. It is used to convey a payer organization. |
C4DIC Patient |
The goal of this profile is to describe a data-minimized version of Patient used to convey information about the Member who has health insurance coverage. Information that would normally not appear on a health insurance card is not required. The use of this profile is only approved for conveying information related to a health insurance card as part of this IG. |
These define constraints on FHIR data types for systems conforming to this implementation guide
Additional Insurance Card Information |
This extension enables the passing of free text items often found on insurance cards. Health plans may provide this extension as part of the Coverage resource to communicate concepts such as TTY, disclaimers about eligibility or limits to coverage, notice of dental or vision coverage, etc. |
Background Color |
This extension enables an insurance company to provide a background color to be used by consuming applications when they render the information found on an insurance card for the insurance plan member. |
Barcode |
This extension enables payers to provide an image of the barcode found on a member’s physicial insurance card. This image may be displayed by consuming applications when rendering the coverage information for use by the health plan member. Often there are data elements relevant to the health plan coverage encoded in the barcode. The extension also allows for the health plan to provide a Label for the image which can be displayed in the consuming application as well as a Description of the content in the image file. Detailed descriptions are encouraged to assist with accessibility. |
Beneficiary Costs |
This extension allows for the representation of copay details as strings. This can be passed as part of the Coverage resource where payors need to communicate costToBeneficiary details that cannot be expressed as SimpleQuantity or Money data types. |
Card Issue Date |
This extension allows for the expression of the date at which the insurance card was issued by the payer. The health plan may pass this along with the Coverage resource to indicate when the information became in force. |
Highlight Color |
This extension enables an insurance company to provide a highlight color to be used by consuming applications when they render the information found on an insurance card for the insurance plan member |
Logo |
This extension enables payers to provide an image of their company or organization logo for use by consuming applications when rendering the coverage information for use by the health plan member. This may assist in making the information provided feel more relevant or recongizable by the member. The extension also allows for the health plan to provide a Label for the image which can be displayed in the consuming application as well as a Description of the content in the image file. Detailed descriptions are encouraged to assist with accessibility. |
Plan Beneficiaries |
This extension allows for the representation of all of the members on the plan with corresponding Names and MemberIDs. This enables health plans to pass this information along with the Coverage resources to align with how this content is printed on physical insurance cards. |
QR Code |
This extension enables payers to provide an image of the QR code found on a member’s physicial insurance card. This image may be displayed by consuming applications when rendering the coverage information for use by the health plan member. Often there are data elements relevant to the health plan coverage encoded in the QR code. The extension also allows for the health plan to provide a Label for the image which can be displayed in the consuming application as well as a Description of the content in the image file. Detailed descriptions are encouraged to assist with accessibility. |
Supporting image |
This extension enables payers to provide other supporting images found on a member’s physicial insurance card. A supporting image may be displayed by consuming applications when rendering the coverage information for use by the health plan member. These images may communicate additional information to the member such as the type of coverage provided or partner logos. The extension also allows for the health plan to provide a Label for the image which can be displayed in the consuming application as well as a Description of the content in the image file. Detailed descriptions are encouraged to assist with accessibility. |
