Constraints to be Applied

• Constraints to integrate clinical genomic standards into FHIR, as outlined in

HL7 Version 2 Implementation Guide: Clinical Genomics; Fully LOINC-Qualified Genetic Variation Model, Release 2

Version 2 Implementation Guide: Clinical Genomics; Fully LOINC-Qualified Genetic Variation Model, Release 1 (US Realm)

• Extensions to support genomic coordinates will be coded in LOINC and added to these terms
• Additional extensions maybe added as necessary.
  • Note the use of LOINC codes to qualify genetic/genomic results will be strongly recommended but not required.
  • Additionally, using LOINC to qualify genetic/genomic data has also been demonstrated in the following:

HL7 IG for CDA R2: Genetic Testing Reports, Release 1 - GTR

Implementation Guide for CDA® Release 2: Genetic Testing Reports, Release 1

• Finally, the genetic/genomic information will be aligned with the Clinical Genomic DAM and DIM currently underdevelopment
  • The DAM & DIM will also be backwards compatible to the v.2.5.1 and CDA Genetic Test Report (mentioned above)
