Status wikipage: final

This FHIR profile is based on version 1.2 of the building block Contact. The latest version of this building block can be found here on the wiki.

Concept

A contact is any interaction, regardless of the situation, between a patient and the healthcare provider, in which the healthcare provider has primary responsibility for diagnosing, evaluating and treating the patient’s condition and informing the patient. These can be visits, appointments or non face-to-face interactions.

Contacts can be visits to the general practitioner or other practices, home visits, admissions (in hospitals, nursing homes or care homes, psychiatric institutions or convalescent homes) or other relevant contacts. This only includes past contacts. Future contacts can be documented in the PlannedCareActivity information model.

Purpose

Contacts can be recorded to provide insight on the interactions that have taken place between the patient and healthcare provider and in which context these took place.
