FHIR V4.0 - Clinical Data Model Mapping
Here’s how the fields defined by FHIR for RelatedPerson map to the fields in Salesforce.
| RelatedPerson Resource | Salesforce Field | Type | Salesforce Cardinality | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| identifier | Identifier | Object | 0.M | The identifier information for a related person is represented as Identifier records that reference the related person’s person account using their Identifier.ParentRecordId field. |
| active | Account.IsActive | Boolean | 0.1 | N/A |
| patient | ContactContactRelation__c.Contact__c | Lookup: Contact | 1.1 | Though Salesforce can tehnically accommodate patient as a zero-to-many association, it is recommended to align with the FHIR defined one-to-one association. |
| relationship | ContactContactRelation__c.Role__c | Lookup: ReciprocalRole__c | 0.M | While FHIR defines relatedPerson.relationship as a code set bundle, its Salesforce implementation is a reference to ReicprocalRole__c. |
