HSDHealthcareService

The HSD HealthcareService profile was introduced in STU 1 of this guide to allow example value sets that are used to search human and social service directories, because based on guidance from the human and social services community, existing human and social services taxonomies have not been deemed suitable for use in the relevant value sets. This profile isbased on the R4 HealthcareService resource, and fully aligned (as opposed to derived from) the Plan-Net HealthcareService profile which enforces use of extensible bindings to the category and type elements. This profile describes the way a human/social service can be contacted to assist patients and clients with unmet social needs. Examples include food, housing/shelter, income & employment, public transportation, public education, legal services, disability and aging and mental and physical health.
