Records whether outbound correspondence to a practitioner should be delivered through Health Report
Manager rather than by fax. Carried as a tag on Practitioner.meta.tag, where this is the tag's
system.
A tag, not an extension. The address identifies the system of a Coding in meta.tag, which
is why it is declared as a code system. The vocabulary is the unusual part: the codes are the
literal strings true and false.
Absent means not enabled. A missing tag and the code false mean the same thing; false exists
so a writer can clear the preference in place rather than remove the coding. Compare
case-insensitively, and treat anything that is not true as not enabled rather than as an error.
One of five sibling systems, one per contact method. The other four are
../CodeSystem/contact-by-email,
../CodeSystem/contact-by-fax,
../CodeSystem/contact-by-mail and
../CodeSystem/contact-by-phone, each carrying this same true / false
vocabulary under its own address. They are independent: any combination may be enabled, the set
does not rank them, and the state of one says nothing about the others. They are separate systems
because a writer keeps a single tag per system, replacing rather than adding, so five methods
sharing one system would clear each other.
It is not the site-level Health Report Manager switch. Whether a site sends reports over Health
Report Manager at all is recorded on Location, at
../CodeSystem/hrm-send-enabled. Neither flag implies the other.
A routing preference, not a ContactPoint. Practitioner.telecom says what a practitioner's
addresses are; this says which of them outbound correspondence should use. It does not assert that
a Health Report Manager endpoint is recorded for this practitioner, and it is not a consent.
Nexus EMR writes this today at
http://services.well.com/fhir/CodeSystem/contact-by-hrm (FHIR-376): it is live in stored
Practitioner.meta.tag codings and in code, and is under migration to the canonical declared here.
Write the canonical; expect both until the migration completes. The two addresses share their final
segment, but the scheme, the host and the /fhir path prefix differ, so match each exactly rather
than deriving one from the other.
