SpecificationRevisionRevision date

pan-Canadian Patient Summary Interoperability Specifications (PS-CA Specifications)
Implementable and testable specifications, based on the IHE International Patient Summary specification and the HL7 IPS Implementation Guide. It defines building blocks to create and share condition-independent and specialty-agnostic patient summaries, irrespective of the condition of the patient or the treatment sought or specialty of the provider delivery care

pan-Canadian Patient Summary – FHIR Implementation Guide
An implementable, testable specification for the HL7 FHIR composition that defines the data payload of the PS-CA specification, based on the HL7 FHIR IPS implementation guide. It contains information for solution developers to implement the PS-CA content data model using the HL7® Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR®) standard. It describes the data elements & types, cardinality, constraints, and code system references

pan-Canadian Patient Summary - Companion Guide to Use Cases & Definitions
A companion document to the pan-Canadian Patient Summary Interoperability Specification that presents the broader context for clinical, business, interoperability and solution development considerations that were discovered during the development of the PS-CA. It defines the healthcare problem that the PS-CA addresses and includes healthcare use cases and interoperability requirements in terms that will be traceable to the content in the pan-Canadian Patient Summary - Companion Guide to Reference Architecture

pan-Canadian Patient Summary - Companion Guide to Reference Architecture
Contains background information on the abstracted PS-CA actors and transactions for the Pan-Canadian Patient Summary Interoperable Specifications, describes baseline information on the recommended IHE profiles, and includes links to the IHE source documentation where stakeholders can get additional details on each PS-CA actor and transaction. This document also includes descriptions of alternatives and choices for implementation patterns and ecosystem architectures to support the PS-CA in current state, including sequence diagrams that demonstrate the relationship and dependencies between the PS-CA actors and transactions.

In addition to the PS-CA Interoperability Bundle, you may wish to review this placemat which provides a high-level view of relevant Integration Profiles to support the PS-CA project. This view contains a superset of profiles that offer alternatives to exchanging Patient Summaries, depending on Jurisdictional service type and availability. Mandatory and optional capability support is described in the sequence diagrams associated with each Use Case analysis.
