Flag

The Flag FHIR resource maps to the ClinicalAlert object in Salesforce.

FHIR V4.0 - Clinical Data Model Mapping

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

Table 1. Flag - Salesforce
Flag Resource	Salesforce Field	Type	Salesforce Cardinality	Notes
`identifier`	`Identifier`	Object	0.M	The identifier information for a clinical alert is represented as `Identifier` records that reference the clinical alert record using their `Identifier.ParentRecordId` field.
`status`	`ClinicalAlert.Status`	Picklist	0.1	While FHIR defines `Flag.status` as a code, the Salesforce implementation of `ClinicalAlert.Status` is picklist.
`category`	`ClinicalAlert.Categories`	Multi-Select Picklist	0.M	While FHIR defines `Flag.category` as a code set bundle, the Salesforce implementation of `ClinicalAlert.Categories` is a multi-select picklist.
`code`	`ClinicalAlert.CodeId`	Lookup: `CodeSetBundle`	1.1	While FHIR defines `Flag.code` as a code set bundle only, the Salesforce implementation flattens it into `ClinicalAlert.Code` and `ClinicalAlert.CodeDescription`. The latter is meant to display non-coded information to users as required.
`code`	`ClinicalAlert.CodeDescription`	String	0.1
`subject`	`ClinicalAlert.Subject`	Polymorphic Lookup: `Location`, `Account` `HealthcareProvider`, `Medication`, and `PatientMedicalProcedure`	1.1	The Salesforce implementation of `flag.subject` doesn’t support plan definitions.
`period`	`ClinicalAlert.StartDate`	Date Time	0.1	In Salesforce’s implementation, `Flag.period` is split into two fields, `ClinicalAlert.StartDate` and `ClinicalAlert.EndDate`.
`period`	`ClinicalAlert.EndDate`	Date Time	0.1
encounter	`ClinicalAlert.RelatedEncounterId`	Lookup: `ClinicalEncounter`	0.1	N/A
author	`ClinicalAlert.RaisedById`	Polymorphic Lookup: `HealthcareProvider`, `CareRegisteredDevice`, and `HealthcarePractitionerFacility`	0.1	The Salesforce implementation of `flag.author` doesn’t support patients, and organizations.
