Practitioner
FHIR V4.0 - Clinical Data Model Mapping
Here’s how the fields defined by FHIR for Practitioner map to the fields in Salesforce.
| Practitioner Resource | Salesforce Field | Type | Salesforce Cardinality | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| identifier | Identifier | Object | 0.M | The identifier information for a documentReference is represented as Identifier records that reference the HealthcareProvider record using their Identifier.ParentRecordId field. |
| active | Account.IsActive | Boolean | 0.1 |
The practitioner.active field is mapped to the account record of the provider’s person account. This account record is referenced using the HealthcareProvider.AccountId field. If your Implementation models providers as Contacts instead of Person Accounts, then you can’t map practitioner.active to your providers. |
| name | PersonName | Object | 0.M | The name information for a practitioner is represented as PersonName records that reference the practitioner’s person account record using their PersonName.ParentRecordId field. |
| telecom | ContactPointPhone | Object | 0.M |
The telecom information for a practitioner is represented as ContactPointPhone records that reference the account record of the practitioner’s person account using the ContactPointPhone.ParentId field. If your Implementation models providers as Contacts instead of Person Accounts, then you can’t map practitioner.telecom to your providers. |
| address | ContactPointAddress | Object | 0.M |
The address information for a practitioner is represented as ContactPointAddress records that reference the account record of the practitioner’s person account using the ContactPointAddress.ParentId field. If your Implementation models providers as Contacts instead of Person Accounts, then you can’t map practitioner.address to your providers. |
| gender | Contact.Gender | Picklist | 0.1 |
While FHIR defines practitioner.gender as a code set, its Salesforce implementation is a picklist. The practitioner’s gender is mapped to the contact record of their person account. This contact record is referenced using the HealthcareProvider.PractitionerId field on HealthcareProvider. |
| birthDate | Contact.Birthdate | Date | 0.1 | N/A |
| photo | N/A | N/A | N/A | Not supported |
| qualification | BoardCertification | Object | 0.M | The qualification information for a practitioner is represented as BoardCertification records that reference the practitioner’s HealthcareProvider record using their BoardCertification.HealthcareProviderId field. |
| qualification.identifier | Identifier | Object | 0.M | The identifier information for a qualification is represented as Identifier records that reference the BoardCertification record using their Identifier.ParentRecordId field. |
| qualification.code | BoardCertification.CertificationType | Picklist | 0.1 |
While FHIR defines practitioner.qualification.code as a code set bundle, its Salesforce implementation is a picklist. |
| qualification.period | BoardCertification.EffectiveFrom | Date | 0.1 | Because Salesforce doesn’t support a native period data type, the practitioner.qualification.period FHIR resource is flattened to a set of from and to dates. |
| BoardCertification.EffectiveTo | Date | 0.1 | ||
| qualification.issuer | BoardCertification.BoardName | String | 0.1 | N/A |
| communication | PersonLanguage | Object | 0.M |
The language information for a practitioner is represented as PersonLanguage records that reference the practitioner’s person account using their PersonLanguage.IndividualId field. While FHIR defines practitioner.communication as a code set bundle, the Salesforce implementation is a reference to PersonLanguage. |
