Provider

This data model conveys a provider's demographics, qualifications, and roles. If you persist provider to your system, we recommend using this to keep your database in sync with the EHR system.

Most patient-centric data models like PatientAdmin, Scheduling, and Order have references to provider data. The Provider data model isn't patient-centric, though. It focuses on who the provider is , not the provider's role in regards to the patient's treatment.

This data model has event types that allow you to:

  • receive a notification when provider records are created, updated, or deactivated; or
  • query and receive provider information.
EHR support for Provider

An EHR system usually supports exchanging provider data via an MFN HL7v2 feed or their own proprietary API. Just note that MFN interfaces aren't common. However, the setup is site-specific, and we recommend talking with your connection to see what they support.
