Introduction
openIMIS supports beneficiary and claims management of a variety of different protection schemes (or instruments) in health and beyond. The nature of a scheme defines which functionalities and data structures in openIMIS are needed. As a prerequisite for building these in an efficient way, a well structured classification of protection schemes is needed.
Examples of Coding System
HL7 FHIR Valueset Coverage Type
HL7 defines Coverage as data structure that describes the protection of a beneficiary in the context of health services: http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/coverage.html . openIMIS is mapping this structure directly into data base tables: FHIR R4 - Coverage . There are two elements that can be used to classify the coverage of an individual:
coverage type: contains one code of a list of predefined codes: http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/valueset-coverage-type.html . It is recommended that this list comes from a generic, standardized list of classifications. Note that these are currently at a maturity level of 0.
coverage class: can contain a collection of additional attributes that can further classify a coverage.
