We have a use case of Case Managers who start patient discharge planning from the moment they are admitted. This process includes identifying anticipated/planned discharge dates, locations to discharge to, barriers to discharge, Coverage (insurance), social status (homelessness / poverty), transportation etc. As you can see this can involve multiple parties and is a constantly evolving case.

Any idea on what is the best Resource or resources that can be leveraged to implement this use case?

In this situation isn't it we have to leverage the existing the existing encounter resource?

If ending up creating the new resource is a solution then it becomes more like V2

Interesting questions, but:

  1. This is the hapi stream, the question belongs to implementers
  2. Seeing the huge amount of implementing questions, would it make sense to divide into domain specific substreams, eg. Implementers/adt?
  3. Looking at v2 and v3 is a good idea
  4. It must be realized by a combibation of resource updates, eg patient, encounter,...
  5. Not sure, whether the encounter resource definition is correct/appropriate?! It should be more like in c3...

Thanks @Frank Oemig I just moved this conversation to Implementers stream

May be you can checkout the CarePlan resource? Just see if you can leverage it

As I don't think it is wise to discuss the same issue in two streams, please see discussion here: https://chat.fhir.org/#narrow/stream/179166-implementers/topic/Discharge.20Planning. As this is not HAPI-specific, I'd prefer to lead the discussion there. Thanks.
