Health Cloud Developer Guide
This guide provides information on the custom objects used by Health Cloud and their
fields. Some fields may not be listed for some objects.
|
Health Cloud is available in Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience Available in: Enterprise and Unlimited Editions |
-
Health Cloud Data Model
Salesforce Health Cloud provides a rich set of standard and custom objects to store and access specialized health information. -
Health Cloud Fields on Standard Objects
Health Cloud adds standard and custom fields to some standard Salesforce objects to represent information about individuals. -
HealthCloudExt Namespace
The HealthCloudExt namespace provides an interface and classes for Health Cloud to integrate with a source electronic health records (EHR) system. -
Patient Creation
When patients are first imported into Health Cloud, the information required to identify and represent those patients is created. Historical medical information associated with patients is not imported into Health Cloud by default; however, you can choose to map more historical information, as needed. You can implement a custom integration to import historical medical records from the EHR system and append it to the default patient creation job flow. -
Creating and Importing Documents
You can integrate a fax system with Health Cloud's Intelligent Document Automation features by creating and importing documents programmatically. -
Intelligent Appointment Management
Health Cloud integrates with a customer’s appointment management system to provide a patient appointment booking experience in Salesforce for call center agents and care coordinators. The Health Cloud data model for appointments enables you to work with multiple source systems operating on different EHR platforms. -
Working With Electronic Health Records
HL7 (Health Level Seven) is a standard for exchanging electronic health records (EHR). You can parse EHR data transmitted via HL7 data messages and store it in the Salesforce Health Cloud data model. -
Emergency Response Management
Use the objects, fields, and metadata that extend Salesforce for Emergency Response Management. -
Health Cloud Business APIs
Use the Health Cloud Business APIs for building integrations with Health Cloud or for creating custom UI components. The APIs wrap complex business logic by executing multiple tasks within a single API call. They aim to fulfill business use cases specific to the healthcare industry, such as enrolling patients into a care program or creating requests for prior authorizations. To use these APIs, you are not required to understand the underlying healthcare data model. Most of the APIs are RESTful APIs, but a few are also available through Apex classes and methods. -
Metadata Types
-
Health Cloud Custom Metadata Types
Custom metadata is customizable, deployable, packageable, and upgradeable application metadata. -
Health Cloud Empower Components for Experience Cloud Sites
Developers can use the Health Cloud Empower Components in other applications to create a patient or member site.
