Business Context > Business Data
The Conceptual Model presented below is tied directly to the HL7 FHIR interface specification and uses FHIR Resources.
The model does not repeat the structure of the resources laid out in FHIR. Links to FHIR specs are included for entity definitions and field code values. In any difference of meaning between cited FHIR elements and this model, FHIR is the authoritative voice.
| Entity Name | Description | Reference to Target |
|---|---|---|
| Provenance | Provenance of a resource is a record that describes entities and processes involved in producing and delivering or otherwise influencing that resource. Provenance provides a critical foundation for assessing authenticity, enabling trust, and allowing reproducibility. | Provenance |
| Target | The Reference(s) that were generated or updated by the activity described in this resource. A provenance can point to more than one target if multiple resources were created/updated by the same activity. | BackboneElement |
| Agent | An actor taking a role in an activity for which it can be assigned some degree of responsibility for the activity taking place. | BackboneElement |
| Entity | An entity used in this activity. | BackboneElement |
| Activity | An activity is something that occurs over a period of time and acts upon or with entities; it may include consuming, processing, transforming, modifying, relocating, using, or generating entities. | CodableConcept |
