Description
This EHR Interoperability Profile describes the process for a user / system to correct a patient Event in the EHRi system. A patient’s Event may be corrected (made obsolete) if it is found to contain incorrect data.
The following steps describe the business process to correct an Event in the EHR:
1. An EHR Event “A” is identified as being incorrect and is retrieved from the EHR to the POS system either by the original author, or a user authorized to make a correction. The unique Event identifiers are passed to the POS system at the same time.
2. The POS system user initiates an “EHRIP Correct Event” interaction with the EHR
2.1. Event “B” is created in the
EHR to record that Event A is incorrect and obsolete
(Communication Step EHRCS15 Put Event)
2.2. Event “C” is created in the EHR as the new correct
replacement version of Event “A”
(Communication Step EHRCS15 Put Event)
Notes:
If the original Event being corrected is linked to an Encounter, it is the POS system’s responsibility to provide the common attribute values to ensure the new correction Events created in the EHR belong to the same Encounter.
Each newly created correction Event is linked to a Patient as a Patient Role to identify the patient’s role while receiving services by this provider at this health service location.
The EHRi system will create a unique entry in the EHR Index for each newly created correction Event using attributes derived from Put Event payload information as well as already established user and location identifiers.
If changes to the patient’s consent / data masking directives are included with this Event, they are recorded in the patient’s consent record in the Consent Registry.
