Scope of coverage

Consent Tracker Scope of Coverage

• The proposed Consent Tracker Resource is intended to meet a very basic yet unique healthcare domain business requirement, which is to convey the minimal set of consent directive metadata that has been used by the industry to manage consent directive workflow and access control.

• The Consent Tracker Resource elements were selected based on mapping several current approaches to conveying consent directive metadata including:
  • v2 CON Medical Records Consent Segment;
  • v2 MDM/ACK - Document Status Change Notification (Event T03)
  • ADT ARV-3 Access Restriction Value;
  • OM 1-30 Master Files General Observations Confidentiality Code;
  • ORC-28 Common Order Segment Confidentiality Code;
  • Financial Management DG1-18 Confidential Indicator and DRG-10 Confidential Indicator; **eClaims EHC^E12 Request Additional Information (event E12) and EHC^E13 Additional Information Response (event E13)
