QI-Core Implementation Guide
7.0.0-ballot - STU7 Ballot United States of America flag

This page is part of the Quality Improvement Core Framework (v7.0.0-ballot: STU7 (v7.0.0) Ballot 1) based on FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) R4. The current version which supersedes this version is 6.0.0. For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions

Resource Profile: QICore Practitioner

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/qicore/StructureDefinition/qicore-practitioner Version: 7.0.0-ballot
Active as of 2018-08-22 Computable Name: QICorePractitioner

Profile of Practitioner for decision support/quality metrics. Defines the core set of elements and extensions for quality rule and measure authors.

Must Have:
  • identifier: (QI) An identifier for the person as this agent
  • identifier.system: (QI) The namespace for the identifier value
  • identifier.value: (QI) The value that is unique
  • name: The name(s) associated with the practitioner
  • name.family: Family name (often called 'Surname')
QI Elements:
  • identifier: (QI) An identifier for the person as this agent
  • identifier: (QI) There is not a general Tax Identifier Numer (TIN) OID. There is an SSN, a PTIN, and an ITIN, but no TIN generally. So the only slice specified here is EIN, if consumers determine a need for an SSN, submit a comment to that effect.
  • identifier.use: (QI) usual | official | temp | secondary | old (If known)
  • identifier.value: (QI) The value that is unique

NOTE TO BALLOT REVIEWERS:
  • US Core 7.0, and thus QI-Core 7.0, has a new approach to USCDI requirements.
    • As noted in the US Core 7.0 Must Support section, US Core 7.0 no longer highlights mandatory (cardinality 1..* or 1..1) and Must Support elements with a (USCDI) indicator as such items must be supported for interoperability.
    • Those USCDI elements that are not mandatory or Must Support now include an indicator (ADDITIONAL USCDI) in US Core. QI-Core 7.0 does not reference USCDI elements; rather, users should access US Core 7.0 to understand its implementation of USCDI version 4.
  • We invite comments about the approach and suggestions for other options that would also avoid unnecessary noise or reading load to the QI-Core profile representation.
  • Further, QI-Core 7.0 does not discuss USCDI+Quality because at the time of ballot preparation, no published version of USCDI+Quality is available. We seek reviewer advice regarding how QI-Core might address future USCDI+Quality.
