PractitionerRole

The practitionerRole FHIR resource maps to the HealthcarePractitionerFacility and CareProviderFacilitySpecialty objects in Salesforce.

The practitionerRole resource in FHIR is represented as a combination of HealthcarePractitionerFacility and CareProviderFacilitySpecialty records, where the HealthcarePractitionerFacility record is the base. The CareProviderFacilitySpecialty record is associated to the HealthcarePractitionerFacility record by referencing the HealthcarePractitionerFacility record using the PractitionerFacilityId field on CareProviderFacilitySpecialty.

Here’s how the fields defined by FHIR for PractitionerRole map to the fields in Salesforce.

Table 1. PractitionerRole - Salesforce
Practitioner Resource	Salesforce Field	Type	Salesforce Cardinality	Notes
`identifier`	`Identifier`	Object	0.M	The identifier information for a practitionerRole is represented as `Identifier` records that reference the HealthcarePractitionerFacility record using their `Identifier.ParentRecordId` field.
`active`	`HealthcarePractitionerFacility.IsActive`	Boolean	0.1	N/A
`period`	`HealthcarePractitionerFacility.EffectiveFrom`	Date	0.1	Because Salesforce doesn’t support a native period data type, the `practitionerRole.period` FHIR resource is flattened to a set of from and to dates.
`period`	`HealthcarePractitionerFacility.EffectiveTo`	Date	0.1
`practitioner`	`HealthcarePractitionerFacility.PractitionerId`	Lookup: `Contact`	0.1	This field references the contact record of the practitioner’s person account.
`organization`	`N/A`	N/A	N/A	Not supported
`code`	`CareProviderFacilitySpecialty.SepcialtyRole`	Picklist	0.M	While FHIR defines `practitionerRole.code` as a code set bundle, its Salesforce implementation is a picklist. Zero-to-many values can be associated by creating multiple `CareProviderFacilitySpecialty` records that reference a `HealthcarePractitionerFacility` record. However, a single `CareProviderFacilitySpecialty` record can have only one combination of role and specialty.
`specialty`	`CareProviderFacilitySpecialty.SepcialtyId`	Lookup: `CareSpecialty`	0.M	While FHIR defines `practitionerRole.code` as a code set bundle, its Salesforce implementation is a `CareSpecialty` reference. Zero-to-many values can be associated by creating multiple `CareProviderFacilitySpecialty` records that reference a `HealthcarePractitionerFacility` record. However, a single `CareProviderFacilitySpecialty` record can have only one combination of role and specialty.
`location`	`HealthcarePractitionerFacility.AccountId`	Lookup: `Account`	0.1	While FHIR defines `practitionerRole.location` as a direct reference to `HealthcareFacility`, the Salesforce implementation references it indirectly. This is done by referencing the local business account of the required facility using the `HealthcarePractitionerFacility.AccountId` field The Salesforce implementation supports only one `practitionerRole.location` reference for each practitioner role. .
`healthcareService`	N/A	N/A	N/A	Not supported
`telecom`	N/A	N/A	N/A	Not supported
`availableTime`	`HealthcarePractitionerFacility.OperatingHoursId`	`OperatingHours`	0.M	Even though only one `OperatingHours` record can be referenced from a `HealthcarePractitionerFacility` record, multiple time slots can be added to that `OperatingHours` record. As such, zero-to-many available time values can be added to a single `HealthcarePractitionerFacility` record through a single `OperatingHours` reference.
`notAvailable`	N/A	N/A	N/A	Not supported
`availabilityExceptions`	`HealthcarePractitionerFacility.AvialabilityExceptions`	String	0.1	N/A
`endPoint`	N/A	N/A	N/A	Not supported
