This is the HL7 Belgium FHIR Implementation Guide for Patient Care, prepared by the Patient Care Work Group.

### Disclaimer

The purpose of these profiles is to support the various ongoing projects, such as Alivia, Born in Belgium and Data Innovation projects amongst other, in using validated Belgian profiles. This will enable easier connection and data exchange between projects in the future. However, to date, there is no intention to exchange these data. The profile remains subject to changes, according to the maturity model.

### Scope

The resources in this Implementation Guide are contextualizations of the FHIR resources and are agnostic of any specific use case.
Therefore they provide guidance and minimal constraints, to provide a generic basis for interoperability while allowing the resources to be profiled with additional details in different topics.
Notably, resources like BeCarePlan, BeTask, and to some extent CareTeam, are multi-purpose, and are expected to have different profiles for different types of use cases.

### Usage

These resources are expected to be further profiled by different use cases, in the different working groups. By providing a minimal contextualization, these resources can be used as is, if a more specific national profile is not used. Implementers are invite to always use the most specific profile that matches their scope. When there is none, the community is invited to discuss and promote a standard profile. Implementers may use these generc profiles in situations where no profile exists.
