Topic: Patient Insurance - Subscriber Employment

Hi,
I am looking for a place to add employment details of a subscriber which is part of coverage resource. Currently, I am using RelatedPerson to add subscriber name and I have a use case where we need subscriber employment details too. Could someone please help me out here?

What kind of employment details?
gautham reddy (Oct 03 2019 at 14:55):
Employer name, employment start date, employment status and employment address.
Note: we can have multiple employers for a subscriber.

Maybe you can take a look of Practitioner and PractitionerRole

The subscriber I am trying to add is related to patient insurance. So, I am using subscriber field on Coverage resource.But I see a subscriber can be referenced only as Patient/RelatedPerson.
As in my use case an insurance subscriber can be an other person, I am using RelatedPerson to map the subscriber name. But now we got a requirement to map subscriber employment details too.
So, I am wondering if I still have to use RelatedPerson with extensions or change it to any other resource?

I don't know anything - @Paul Knapp or @Andy Stechishin ?

The employer would go in the Coverage.policyHolder-> organization. There will only be a single employer for an instance of coverage. We haven't addressed the finer employment data elements but we can consider in FM and will probably need input from PA. I know there is work underway regarding employment history, work roles etc. to support longitudinal employment and health, I'm not sure whether that ended up in PA of Public Health.

There is an Occupational Data for Health (ODH) FHIR that is pending publication with the Public Health work group. The IG is currently posted pending publication approval at https://build.fhir.org/ig/HL7/us-odh/
