Resource Profile: PH Core Encounter

Official URL: http://doh.gov.ph/fhir/ph-core/StructureDefinition/ph-core-encounter Version: 0.2.0
Draft as of 2026-04-10 Computable Name: PHCoreEncounter

This profile sets minimum expectations for an Encounter resource to record, search, and fetch basic encounter information for a patient. It is based on the FHIR R4 Encounter resource and identifies the additional mandatory core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets that SHALL be present in the Encounter when conforming to this profile. It provides the floor for standards development for specific uses cases in a Philippine context.
