Project Need

The COVID-19 (previously '2019 novel coronavirus') disease and SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) is a global pandemic mobilizing extraordinary global effort to combat. The goal for this project is to define interoperable definitions for exchange of symptom, screening, laboratory, demographic, and related resources.

The project is intended to be highly collaborative and actively engage worldwide experts.

Objectives and Deliverables
Deliverables are the FHIR profiles, and IG. Due to worldwide urgency, draft/provisional profiles and pre-ballot materials are expected to be developed in a more expeditious and public manner than would normal be expected. Logica's copy is/will be released on an iterative basis at https://covid-19-ig.logicahealth.org . A pre-release 'staging' site is also available.
