PACIO Recommendation on Advance Directive Data Element
- Data Class: Advance Directives (Level 2)
- Data Element: Advance Directives (Level 2)
- Recommendation: Include the Advance Directives data element in the USCDI V5.
- Rationale: The PACIO (Post-Acute Care Interoperability) Project, established February 2019, is a collaborative effort between industry, government, and other stakeholders, with the goal of establishing a framework for the development of FHIR implementation guides to facilitate health information exchange. The PACIO Community believes the Advance Directives data element is critical to enable the exchange of advance directive information that focuses on a narrative description and supporting documentation, in particular PDFs or scanned images.
