Justification and Objectives
This track will have two primary objectives:
- Test the $member-match operation for member matching between payers. This operation is a candidate for promotion to the HRex IG since it is an operation that could be used across multiple IGs. PDex and PCDE are already planning to implement $member-match as a preliminary step in the respective IG workflows for Payer to Payer exchange use cases.
- Test Consumer Apps connecting to a server that provides US Core resources that have been generated from Payer Claims information. The primary resources to be focused on for testing are:
- Encounter
- Condition
- Procedure
- Observation
- Provenance

Overview
This track will enable Payers and Providers to share claims and clinical data using FHIR API guidance specified in the PDex and HRex implementation guides.
An additional workflow is required to enable a payer to query a prior payer when a member is enrolling on to a Health Plan.
The new Payer will collect prior coverage information from the enrolling member. This, together with the member's demographic information will be used to compile a bundle of records that will be submitted to a $member-match operation at the /Patient endpoint.
The details of the bundle can be found on this page: HL7 Da Vinci PDex $member-match
The $member-match operation will use the Coverage information and the Patient profile from the submitted bundle to determine a unique member match.
If there is a unique member match the Old Health Plan will return a bundle that includes:
- Patient resource that includes a unique member identifier.
- A coverage record that reflects the earliest date for which coverage was provided and the latest date for which coverage applies.
The $member-match operation will return a 404 status code if a unique match is not found.
This track will use 4.0 version of FHIR.
Clinical input requested (if any)
The track requires clinical input to assess the value and priority of payer data to be added to a patient's record.

Role 1 Name
Scenarios
Lauren Dent is a 62-year-old female, living in Wisconsin but she spends winters in Tampa Bay, FL.
Lauren works on a seasonal basis and has just accepted a new position with a new employer and has moved to Madison, WI to live with her daughter, leaving her previous home in La Crosse, WI. As a result of the move she has to select a new Primary Care Provider and a new Health Plan offered by her new Employer.
Lauren is in reasonable health but is managing a number of conditions:
* She has been diagnosed as Pre-Diabetic and is being treated with medications.
* She is taking medication for hypertension.
* She had a knee replacement 5 years ago.
* She had a procedure seven years ago to correct a problem with a disc in her lower back.
* A history of a normal colonoscopy 5 years earlier
* A history of a pneumovax and zostavax 4 years earlier.
Example 1:
The subject is switching from one health plan to a new health plan.
During enrollment with the new health plan Lauren provides demographic information and the details of her old health plan, taken from her insurance card.
Lauren also gives the New Health Plan permission to request her health record from her old health plan.
The New Health Plan connects to the Old Health Plan and supplies a coverage record complete with old health plan information and member demographics to a /Patient/$member-match endpoint.
The old health plan performs a member match and returns a Patient resource for the matched member (or a 404 if not found).
The New Health Plan receives the Patient resource and an access Token to enable them to query the old health plans FHIR endpoint for specific clinical resources, or to perform a /Patient/{id}/$everything to get a bundle of records back that represent the member's clinical record.
Scenario Steps:
Use USCDI to represent payer data derived from claims, laboratory testing, diagnostic reports, immunization registries, data extracted from C-CDA documents and other sources.
TestScript(s)
Aegis will develop specific test scripts in addition to their standard test scripts for R4 US Core.
Security and Privacy Considerations
We are considering Security and Privacy topics out of scope for Connectathon. These issues are discussed in the Health Record Exchange (HRex) implementation guide.
