Encounter

Introduction

An encounter is a contact between patient and healthcare professional where healthcare is being provided.
For handling encounters from an external system to a Cambio system via COS, there are several profiles to choose from depending on the use case. All of the profiles deals with either outpatient or inpatient encounters. An outpatient encounter is an encounter performed on an ambulatory basis, rather than by admission to a hospital or other healthcare facility as the inpatient encounter requires.

Included Profiles

  • EncounterOutpatientCoreSe - The profile is used for to create a basis for handling outpatient encounters in a Swedish context.
  • EncounterOutpatientWriteSe - The profile is based on the EncounterOutpatientCoreSe profile and is used for creating outpatient encounters.
  • EncounterOutpatientReadSe - The profile is based on the EncounterOutpatientCoreSe profile and is used for searching for outpatient encounters.
  • EncounterPreHospital - The profile is used to create an ambulance contact in COSMIC from an external ambulance system when a patient is coming in to the hospital by ambulance.
  • EncounterLite - The profile is used for searching for ongoing inpatient encounters.

  • $invalidate - The operation is used for invalidating an outpatient encounter that has been created in error.
