## Resource Profile: QICore Coverage

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/qicore/StructureDefinition/qicore-coverage | Version: 7.0.2
Standards status: Trial-use | Maturity Level: 4 | Computable Name: QICoreCoverage

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

"Must Have", "QI Elements" and "primary code path" are defined in the QI-Core Must Support section.
Must Have:

- payor: (QI) Issuer of the policy
- class.value: Group Number
- identifier.type: Member Number identifier type
- class.value: Plan Number
- beneficiary: (QI) Plan beneficiary
- status: active | cancelled | draft | entered-in-error
- relationship: Beneficiary relationship to the subscriber

QI Elements:

- subscriberId: (QI) ID assigned to the subscriber
- policyHolder: (QI) Owner of the policy
- period: (QI) Coverage start and end dates
- type: (QI) Coverage category such as medical or accident

Primary code path: type
(PCPath) This element is the primary code path for this resource CQL Retrieve
Usage

    define "SDE Payer":
      [Coverage: type in "Payer"] Payer
        return {
          code: Payer.type,
          period: Payer.period
        }

See the patterns page for implementation and usage patterns.
