HL7 FHIR® Implementation Guide: Clinical Data Exchange (CDex), Release 1 STU 2.0 - US Realm
DESCRIPTION
This IG provides detailed guidance that helps implementers use FHIR-based interactions to support specific exchanges of clinical data between providers and payers (or other providers). This guide documents Direct Query, Task Based and Attachments transaction approaches for requesting and sending information. Key scenarios this IG can support include:
- Requesting and sending attachments to support claims and prior authorizations
- Requesting documentation to support payer operations such as claims audits
- Gathering information for Quality programs and Risk Adjustment between payers and providers
- Exchanging clinical data between referring providers
In the context of this guide, ‘clinical data’ means any information a provider holds in a patient’s health record. The data format is not limited to FHIR resources, but includes C-CDA documents, pdfs, text files and other types of data. There may be requests for payloads of clinical records of care such as CCD Documents, clinical data sets that may be represented in a FHIRBundle (or C-CDA on FHIR Documents), and clinical data such as a specific FHIR resource.
