Hello Mark - it's Barnsley Hospital who want it and I can see their point on a number of counts. Firstly, they are able to update the Spine with this extra demographic information from their local PAS and secondly the Interweave Portal has these fields available for display which builds expectations. Their view is that they have put the info' in and the Portal has provision to display it but it doesn't (for the reasons you describe). Maybe the other sensible option is for the Portal to display the information from the local FHIR store - it is definitely stored in the Local FHIR Store.
Hi Dave
Done a little bit of digging on this one. PDS does not hold ethnicity information as it is a protected characteristic. As such, it has been deemed there is no legal reason to hold the information.
We would need to speak to NHS E to establish if they would be able to provide Marital Status information from the central APIs. Can you outline what value you would expect to obtain from having access to this data?
Thanks
Note that EthnicOrigin and Martial Status are not available from the Spine via SMSP so we can't update the golden record from that. This would introduce potential conflicts if one provider thinks "A" and another thinks "B"
