72.9.1Call the $davinci-data-export Operation

Once the provider system is registered, the DaVinci Data Exchange module is enabled, Organization and Group resources are created, and consent is properly configured, the provider system can perform a $davinci-data-export to retrieve member data.

72.9.1.1Steps to Call the Operation

1. Obtain an OAuth 2.0 Access Token
   • Use SMART on FHIR to authenticate the provider system.
   • Ensure the token includes the appropriate scopes (e.g., patient/*.read or user/*.read).
2. Prepare the Export Request
   • Endpoint: [FHIR base]/Group/[id]/$davinci-data-export
     • [FHIR base]: base URL of the payer's FHIR server
     • [id]: ID of the Group resource representing the provider's attributed members
   • Request Parameters:
     • exportType (required): e.g., hl7.fhir.us.davinci-pdex#provider-download
     • _since (optional): include only resources updated after this date
     • _until (optional): include only resources updated before this date
     • patient (optional, multiple): filter by specific patient(s)
     • _type / _typeFilter (optional): filter by resource type or subtype
     • _includeHistory (optional): include full resource history
     • _outputFormat (optional): desired format, e.g., NDJSON
   • Method: POST
3. Execute the Export Request
   • Send the POST request with the access token in the Authorization header.
   • HTTP 202 Accepted indicates the export job has been successfully initiated.
   • Locate the Content-Location header in the response. This URL is the export job status (polling) endpoint.
   • e.g., Content-Location: https://api.payer.com/fhir/Group/12345/export-status/67890
   • Use this URL to poll the job until it completes (see Step 4).
4. Poll the Export Job URL
   • Continue polling until the job completes.
   • Once finished, the response provides a list of NDJSON file URLs containing the exported data.
5. Retrieve and Process the Data
   • Download the NDJSON files.
   • Parse and process the resources as needed.
