e-Health
[legal_entities].type | DICTIONARY: LEGAL_ENTITY_TYPE
"values": { "MSP": "заклад з надання медичних послуг", "MIS": "Medical Information system" }, "name": "LEGAL_ENTITY_TYPE"
Problem/Difference
- In HL7 type its array (many kinds), in the e-Health Legal Entity - one value of type
- In HL7 type "prov" (Healthcare Provider) its crossing of 2 or more types of e-Health
2. Hierarchical structure of organization
HL7
Supports hierarchy by attribute "Part of"
e-Health
Non supports hierarchy of Legal Entity
Problem/Difference
Missing functionality
3. Medical services structure of organization/locations
HL7
Supports multi medical services (category + type) in location (division) at entity "healthcareservice" https://www.hl7.org/fhir/healthcareservice.html
e-Health
Now non support. May be use "Product Catalog" ???
Problem/Difference
Missing functionality
4. Confusion in practitioner quailifications/specializtion/etc
HL7
"Practitioner"."qualification"."code" : { CodeableConcept } - https://www.hl7.org/fhir/v2/0360/2.7/index.html#definition
e-Health
Other structure of quailification
### Qualification + type: SPECIALIZATION (string, required) - `Dictionary QUALIFICATION_TYPE` + institution_name: Академія Богомольця (string, required) + speciality: Педіатр (string, required) + issued_date: 2017-02-28 (string, required) - дата отримання сертифікату + certificate_number: 2017-02-28 (string, required)
Problem/Difference
Big confusion and incompatibility of practitioner quailifications/specialization/etc
5. Confusion in practitioner quailifications/specializtion/etc
HL7
"PractitionerRole" -A specific set of Roles/Locations/specialties/services that a practitioner may perform at an organization for a period of time. https://www.hl7.org/fhir/practitionerrole.html#resource
e-Health
Non supports sets Roles/Divisions/specialties/services for Employee.
Problem/Difference
Missing functionality
