Topic: Referencing PractitionerRole in Encounter
Stefan Lang (Sep 11 2018 at 19:26):
There are cases when a practitioner explicitely acts as part of an organization that is not the actual service provider.
One example of that are the German "ASV teams" which are official interdisciplinary teams of practioners.
Every ASV team is an Organization and the practitioner's membership is a PractitionerRole.
Note that an ASV team is not represented as a CareTeam, since the actual list of team members is usually unknown to the local systems. Typically only the practioner's ASV team numbers (aka identifiers) are known.
So I would like to be able to represent the practitioner's actual hospital or practice where the encounter takes place as Encounter.serviceProvider and the practitioner in his context as an ASV team member as Encounter.participant.individual(PractionerRole).
I'd welcome any thoughts on this before just adding a tracker to allow Encounter.participant.individual(PractionerRole).
