SCPTYPE Concept-Social Services Worker(Code-5300011)

Hi Smitha,

Yes, the code-5300011 has been implemented as it was published in the SC-3004-EN - Master Terminology Worksheet.
Better, if we could use "standard letters" (alpha characters) instead of numeric. Wondering if the Terminology Community could look into this and change the numeric code to standard letters (as pan-Canadian standards).

Thanks,
Sisira (NLCHI).

Thanks so much, Sisira for letting us know.

Could you please also confirm whether you are using the code-5300011 as part of your implementation or using a different code representing Social Services Worker.

We believe that code 5300011, published in the SC-3004-EN - Master Terminology Worksheet MR02.06-2016031 is an error as this is the only code which is numeric in 'HealthCareProviderRoleTypes’.

Regards,
Smita

Hi,
"Social Services Worker" included in the "HealthcareProviderRoleType" published in the SC-3004-EN - Master Terminology Worksheet MR02.06-2016031. So the "Social Services Worker" has been implemented in NL EHR (in the provider registry domain with HL7 v3 messages).

According to the NL Government website, "Social Service Worker" is an active Job Class Profile in NL.

Hello All,

Is the below concept and Code from HealthCareProviderRole Type(SCPTYPE) is part of your implementation or was ‘Social Services Worker’ ever included as part of your published vocabulary? If so, did you use this code or use a different code? Please let us know.

Concept Name: Social Services worker

We were looking at HealthCareProviderRole Type subset as CIHI has done some translation work and added a few concepts for national use and we want to update this subset so that everyone has access to the latest and greatest. If we don’t get any response back by EOD Wednesday,26th June, this concept will be deprecated from the list. So, please send us your response back by the due date.
