Scope and Usage

• In The National Directory of Healthcare Providers & Services (NDH) IG, individuals and organizations are represented as participants in a Network through the practitionerRole and organizationAffiliation resources, respectively.

• The Network profile is based on USCore Organization Profile. However, the NPI and CLIA identifier types, which are Must-Support, are clearly intended for provider organizations only and are not expected to be populated for other organization types.

• NDH Network and Organization profiles are both based on the Organization profile. To selectively query only Network profiles, search for type = ‘ntwk’. To selectively query only Organization profiles, search for type = ‘fac,bus,prvgrp,payer,atyprv’.

• When the contact is a department name, rather than a human (e.g., patient help line), include a blank family and given name, and provide the department name in contact.name.text.

• Note that the relationship between InsurancePlans and Networks is many-to-many. A plan may be associated with multiple networks, and a network may be associated with many plans. In this IG, this is modeled by having InsurancePlans reference networks (directionality of relationship supports this).

• To use the location-reference extension to indicate a network coverage area, the preferred form of reference is to create a Location instance with the State or region specified, and possibly provide a GeoJSON.
