Vital Records Death Reporting (VRDR) FHIR Implementation Guide
3.0.0-ballot - ballot United States of America flag

This page is part of the Vital Records Death Reporting FHIR Implementation Guide (v3.0.0-ballot: STU 3 Ballot 1) based on FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) R4. The current version which supersedes this version is 2.2.0. For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions

Resource Profile: Observation - Death Date

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/vrdr/StructureDefinition/vrdr-death-date Version: 3.0.0-ballot
Draft as of 2024-04-05 Computable Name: DeathDate
Other Identifiers: OID:2.16.840.1.113883.4.642.40.10.42.27

The Death Date profile (Observation) provides the death date, death pronouncer, and date pronounced dead. If the actual date of death is known, set value to type dateTime. If the date of death is not known, and a range is known, set value to type Period. This profile is designed to supplant the similar profiles in VRDR and MDI.

The profile includes a component for the time of death pronouncement that is not currently used for death certificate submission.

The certificate signing date is passed via the DeathCertification profile.

The death date specifies the date the death occurred, not the date the record was submitted.

The pronouncer of death can be specified by reference to a USCore Practitioner instance from the ‘performer’ field. This instance should be included in the DeathCertificateDocument and referenced from the DeathCertificate.

The method of date of death determination is not used for the Death Record submission process, and thus does not appear in the table below. The binding to DateOfDeathDeterminationMethodsVS is included for compatibility with the Medicolegal Death Investigation (MDI) Implementation Guide. The valueset only includes the values used by MDI, but is bound extensibly. If a jurisdiction chooses to use this field, and requires additional values (e.g., ‘presumed’), these values can be used while remaining in full conformance with the VRDR IG.
