    Data model principles

    High-level design principles related to the FHIR data modelling aspects of the system

    GP Connect Data Models

    • data model assets to be held on GitHub
    • data models to be licensed under the Apache 2 license
    • code repositories will use the GitFlow branching model
    • a data library Git repository will hold shared/common resources
    • FHIR resources will carry the major version in the name (for example, gpconnect-patient-1) and major/minor version within StructureDefinition/Conformance.
    • profiling tools (for example, Furore Forge) will be used to create FHIR StructureDefinitions and ValueSets.

    Profiling

    It is common for the base FHIR® standard to require further adaptation to a particular context of use.

    Profiling is a general term that describes the process of adapting the base standard for use in a specific context. Typically, the profiling process both restricts and extends APIs, resources and terminologies.
