Continued discussion on using Cross-organizational FHIR scheduling (Argonaut Scheduling) with 360X. The following topics were discussed:

  • Sequence of steps
    • Order for referral placed
    • Cross-organizational scheduling of appointment
    • Send Request package
    • Automatic acceptance
  • Alternatively, it could be
    • Order for referral placed
    • Send Request Package
    • Accept received
    • Cross-organizational scheduling of appointment
  • The first case seems to be better suited for when the patient gets an appontment before they leave the initating provider.
  • Open questions
    • How do we link the appointment to the referral?
    • What types of appointments are best suited to be open for cross-organizational scheduling?
    • If the recipient modifies/cancells the apponitment, how will the initiator know? The Argonaut project is working on support for subscriptions, that would be one possible way.
