Guide overview
This guide helps EHR suppliers map dental journal information to the DigiDOT FHIR R4 model. The profiles on Simplifier define the fields and constraints; these pages explain the roles and relationships of the records and show them in clinical examples.
The profiles are at different stages of development and review. Check profile readiness before mapping.
Where to start
New to FHIR? Start with Reading the profiles for the glossary and a guide to the tables and symbols on Simplifier.
| Reading path | Purpose |
|---|---|
| 1. Model overview | See how plans, bookings, contacts and clinical records fit together. |
| 2. Profile guide | Find the relevant profiles, their relationships and links to their formal definitions. |
| 3. Workflows and examples | Follow the clinical scenario; inspect its records, references and JSON. |
| 4. Shared modelling rules | Look up coding, dental anatomy, references and identifiers used across profiles. |
The Profile map collects the shared datatypes, extensions and ValueSets. Their formal definitions are linked there.
Scope and review
The guide covers the draft information model and examples for EHR mapping. It is not a frozen implementation baseline. Deployment, authentication and operational integration agreements are separate work. The Feedback page explains what to include in review comments and the status of the feedback channel.
Project background and earlier pilot material
The model was developed in DigiDOT stage 1 as a basis for stage 2 EHR work. Shared structures and terminology support consistent data, modular integration, quality work, reporting, analytics and decision support. Procurement arrangements are documented separately. This draft guide does not establish EHDS/EHRxF conformance or deployed server capabilities.
The earlier pilot informed the current model. Its definitions and examples are archived outside this project; use the current examples when exploring mappings.
