Scope of coverage

The Occupational Data for Health (ODH) FHIR IG covers information about a patient’s work or a patient's family member's work. ODH is designed for the social history section of a medical record, to facilitate clinical care in most/all disciplines and delivery environments. ODH also can be used to support public health reporting, population health activities, clinical decision support, and similar value-based care. ODH is not designed to support billing activities. The scope of the work information includes: • Employment status • Retirement status • Combat Zone or Hazardous Duty Work • Past or Present Occupation for the patient or a family member which includes • Past or Present Industry • Work Classification • Work Schedule, including • Weekly Work Days • Daily Work Hours • Job Duties • Occupational Exposures • Employer name • Employer address • Related Subject • Usual Occupation of the patient or a family member which includes • Usual Industry • Usual Occupation Duration • Related Subject


IG Purpose

The majority of adults in the U.S. spend more than half their waking hours at work. Therefore, health and work are inextricably inter-related. For example, the management of chronic conditions requires taking the patient’s work environment into consideration. Furthermore, the recognition of new conditions related to previously unknown workplace hazards has often come from astute clinicians, which requires knowledge of the patients’ work-setting. ONC has indicated recognition of the value of work information for health care. The incorporation of self-reported ODH into Electronic health records (EHRs) and other IT healthcare systems provides an opportunity to improve health in relation to work. ODH has not been broadly recognized as a social determinate of health and has not yet been a priority for inclusion in IT healthcare systems in a structured way that fully supports direct patient care and occupational public health activities. Though research has been conducted and guidance is available to support clinicians, the IT healthcare systems they work in are unable to efficiently identify patients that would benefit the most from this knowledge. This project seeks to address this gap of system and awareness by modeling ODH in a way so that it supports diagnosis, treatment, research and surveillance of work-related injury and illness.
