Library : CareConnect Foundation Profiles
Library Overview
This library is intended to assist developers working with the INTEROPen FHIR profiles.
It adds a number of methods to the standard C# .NET API so as to cater for the various extensions, slices and value sets that are included within the following profiles:
Installing The NuGet Library
The library is published as a NuGet package. This can be installed directly via Visual Studio or via the instructions on the NuGet website at https://www.nuget.org/packages/CCLibFoundation/
GitHub Repository
Example code for this library is published on GitHub here: https://github.com/clarotech/CCLibFoundation If you spot any errors or have any suggestions feel free to log them on GitHub at https://github.com/clarotech/CCLibFoundation/issues
CareConnect-Patient-1
Initialising the profile
The initialisation method automatically sets the metadata for the resource and adds the profile name – which means you don’t need to remember the profile URI.
CareConnect-Organization-1
Initialising the profile
The initialisation method automatically sets the metadata for the resource and adds the profile name – which means you don’t need to remember the profile URI.
Adding ODS Identifiers
The profile has “sliced” the identifier field so as to cater for ODS Organizations and ODS Sites. These methods allow you to add identifiers without needing to remember the system ids used for ODS. These are automatically added by the library.
Adding an Extension for Main Location
The profile has an extension that allows a reference to a “Location” resource that holds details on the organisation’s main location.
Adding an Extension Organization Period
The profile has an extension that allows a FHIR Period to be stored to denote the period of time that the organisation has been ‘active‘
Rounding it all up
Using the examples shown above would create an Organization resource as per the CareConnect profile. This has been achieved without the need for manually creating extensions or worrying about the system Ids for the references used.
