Formal View of Profile Content
Note: Description of Profiles, Differentials, and Snapshots
This profile builds on the core FHIR R4 Practitioner resource. For additional information on the table definitions shown below, see the Logical Table section on the Resource Formats page.
Notes: Click the tabs below to see the different views for the profile:
- The Full View shows all the base resource element information for the profile plus the Surescripts requirements.
- The Hybrid View shows all the element information, but the unchanged information from the base resource is greyed out.
- The Differential View only shows the changes made to the base resource (i.e., the Surescripts requirements).

Practitioner | I | Practitioner | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner A person with a formal responsibility in the provisioning of healthcare or related services DefinitionA person who is directly or indirectly involved in the provisioning of healthcare.
| |
identifier | S Σ | 0..* | Identifier | Element IdPractitioner.identifier An identifier for the person as this agent DefinitionAn identifier that applies to this person in this role. Often, specific identities are assigned for the agent. If available, the NPI of the Practitioner should be included as the identifier.value for an Identifier element for which the identifier.system is "http://hl7.org/fhir/sid/us-npi". If available, the Surescripts Provider ID (SPI) of the Practitioner should be included as the identifier.value for an Identifier element for which the identifier.system is “http://fhirdocs.surescripts.net/spi”.
|
active | Σ | 0..1 | boolean | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner.active Whether this practitioner's record is in active use DefinitionWhether this practitioner's record is in active use. Need to be able to mark a practitioner record as not to be used because it was created in error. If the practitioner is not in use by one organization, then it should mark the period on the PractitonerRole with an end date (even if they are active) as they may be active in another role. This resource is generally assumed to be active if no value is provided for the active element
|
name | S Σ | 0..* | HumanName | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner.name The name(s) associated with the practitioner DefinitionThe name(s) associated with the practitioner. The name(s) that a Practitioner is known by. Where there are multiple, the name that the practitioner is usually known as should be used in the display. The selection of the use property should ensure that there is a single usual name specified, and others use the nickname (alias), old, or other values as appropriate. In general, select the value to be used in the ResourceReference.display based on this:
|
telecom | Σ I | 0..* | ContactPoint | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner.telecom A contact detail for the practitioner (that apply to all roles) DefinitionA contact detail for the practitioner, e.g. a telephone number or an email address. Need to know how to reach a practitioner independent to any roles the practitioner may have. Person may have multiple ways to be contacted with different uses or applicable periods. May need to have options for contacting the person urgently and to help with identification. These typically will have home numbers, or mobile numbers that are not role specific.
|
address | Σ | 0..* | Address | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner.address Address(es) of the practitioner that are not role specific (typically home address) DefinitionAddress(es) of the practitioner that are not role specific (typically home address). Work addresses are not typically entered in this property as they are usually role dependent. The home/mailing address of the practitioner is often required for employee administration purposes, and also for some rostering services where the start point (practitioners home) can be used in calculations. The PractitionerRole does not have an address value on it, as it is expected that the location property be used for this purpose (which has an address).
|
gender | Σ | 0..1 | codeBinding | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner.gender male | female | other | unknown DefinitionAdministrative Gender - the gender that the person is considered to have for administration and record keeping purposes. Needed to address the person correctly. Note that FHIR strings SHALL NOT exceed 1MB in size The gender of a person used for administrative purposes. AdministrativeGender (required)Constraints
|
birthDate | Σ | 0..1 | date | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner.birthDate The date on which the practitioner was born DefinitionThe date of birth for the practitioner. Needed for identification.
|
photo | I | 0..* | Attachment | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner.photo Image of the person DefinitionImage of the person. Many EHR systems have the capability to capture an image of patients and personnel. Fits with newer social media usage too. When providing a summary view (for example with Observation.value[x]) Attachment should be represented with a brief display text such as "Signed Procedure Consent".
|
qualification | 0..* | BackboneElement | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner.qualification Certification, licenses, or training pertaining to the provision of care DefinitionThe official certifications, training, and licenses that authorize or otherwise pertain to the provision of care by the practitioner. For example, a medical license issued by a medical board authorizing the practitioner to practice medicine within a certian locality.
| |
identifier | 0..* | Identifier | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner.qualification.identifier An identifier for this qualification for the practitioner DefinitionAn identifier that applies to this person's qualification in this role. Often, specific identities are assigned for the qualification.

code | 1..1 | CodeableConcept | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner.qualification.code Coded representation of the qualification DefinitionCoded representation of the qualification. Not all terminology uses fit this general pattern. In some cases, models should not use CodeableConcept and use Coding directly and provide their own structure for managing text, codings, translations and the relationship between elements and pre- and post-coordination. Specific qualification the practitioner has to provide a service. v2.0360.2.7 (example)Constraints
| |
period | I | 0..1 | Period | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner.qualification.period Period during which the qualification is valid DefinitionPeriod during which the qualification is valid. Qualifications are often for a limited period of time, and can be revoked. A Period specifies a range of time; the context of use will specify whether the entire range applies (e.g. "the patient was an inpatient of the hospital for this time range") or one value from the range applies (e.g. "give to the patient between these two times"). Period is not used for a duration (a measure of elapsed time). See Duration.
|
issuer | I | 0..1 | Reference(Organization) | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner.qualification.issuer Organization that regulates and issues the qualification DefinitionOrganization that regulates and issues the qualification. References SHALL be a reference to an actual FHIR resource, and SHALL be resolveable (allowing for access control, temporary unavailability, etc.). Resolution can be either by retrieval from the URL, or, where applicable by resource type, by treating an absolute reference as a canonical URL and looking it up in a local registry/repository.
|
communication | 0..* | CodeableConceptBinding | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdPractitioner.communication A language the practitioner can use in patient communication DefinitionA language the practitioner can use in patient communication. Knowing which language a practitioner speaks can help in facilitating communication with patients. The structure aa-BB with this exact casing is one the most widely used notations for locale. However not all systems code this but instead have it as free text. Hence CodeableConcept instead of code as the data type. A human language. CommonLanguages (preferred)Constraints
