5.4 Resource Practitioner - Content

Patient Administration Work GroupMaturity Level: 1Compartments: Practitioner

A person who is directly or indirectly involved in the provisioning of healthcare.

5.4.1 Scope and Usage

Practitioner covers all individuals who are engaged in the healthcare process and healthcare-related services as part of their formal responsibilities and this Resource is used for attribution of activities and responsibilities to these individuals. Practitioners include (but are not limited to):

  • physicians, dentists, pharmacists
  • physician assistants, nurses, scribes
  • midwives, dietitians, therapists, optometrists, paramedics
  • medical technicians, laboratory scientists, prosthetic technicians, radiographers
  • social workers, professional home carers, official volunteers
  • receptionists handling patient registration
  • IT personnel merging or unmerging patient records
  • Service animal (e.g., ward assigned dog capable of detecting cancer in patients)

5.4.2 Boundaries and Relationships

The Resource SHALL NOT be used for persons involved without a formal responsibility like individuals taking care for friends, relatives or neighbors. These can be registered as a Patient's Contact. If performing some action or being referenced by another resource, use the RelatedPerson resource.

The primary distinction between a Practitioner and a RelatedPerson is based on whether:

  • The person/animal operates on behalf of the care delivery organization over multiple patients (Practitioner) or,
  • Where the person/animal is not associated with the organization, and instead is allocated tasks specifically for the RelatedPerson's Patient (RelatedPerson).

A standard extension animalSpecies can be used to indicate the species of a service animal.

5.4.3 Background and Context

Practitioner performs different roles within the same or even different organizations. Depending on jurisdiction and custom, it may be necessary to maintain a specific Practitioner Resource for each such role or have a single Practitioner with multiple roles. The role can be limited to a specific period, after which authorization for this role ends. Note that the represented organization need not necessarily be the (direct) employer of a Practitioner.
