Spine Client Type: MAT
A Non-BadgerNet Maternity Care Record System
This Spine Client Type is specifically for non-BadgerNet stand-alone Maternity care record system instances that want to write to and/or read from identified single pregnancy records in the BadgerNet platform.
It is assumed that each remote Spine Client System instance is a maternity care record system instance that contains details of individual pregnancy care records for pregnant people being cared for by the healthcare practitioner(s) at that location.
For compatibility with the BadgerNet Pregnancy Record, it is also assumed that all BadgerNet Spine Client system instances and associated midwives are part of a defined BadgerNet Maternity Care Location. This is confirmed and recorded as part of the onboarding process for Spine Client System vendors.
Client system technical assumptions
In addition to a list of generic Client System technical requirements, the following additional assumptions/requirements are applied to Client Systems that have been assigned the MAT Spine Client Type.
Each client system instance is assigned its own distinct BadgerNet Spine ClientID and an associated secret (string) that must not be shared between multiple system instances.
Each client system is linked to a single BadgerNet Care Location.
Each client system instance can and does maintain a detailed audit trail of all its own care record CRUD transactions.
The Client System can identify discrete pregnancy care records using the three pregnancy keys:
National ID
Date of Birth
Agreed Estimated Delivery Date (EDD)
If the Client System wants to be informed of care record update events from the Spine, it must be able to either poll the Spine for update event messages on an ad-hoc basis or provide a web-hook URL endpoint that is internet-facing and always available.
BadgerNet Spine limitations for MAT Client Systems
Clients of this type are permitted to only read and write single pregnancy record details and single baby birth details. No other BadgerNet Spine care episode types are available.
The patient data FHIR resources available will be limited to the data-set (Spine Record Filter) agreed for the participating Spine Project.
