Resource Profile: Polaris Patient Core

Official URL: https://fhir.apps.health/StructureDefinition/polaris-core-patient Version: 1.10.0
Draft as of 2026-05-26 Computable Name: PolarisCorePatient

Generic Polaris core profile for patient demographic and administrative information, based on CA Core+. Designed to support a broad range of integration needs.

Polaris Core Patient Profile

Overview

The Polaris Core Patient profile represents patient demographic and administrative information within primary care EMR systems. This profile establishes the foundational requirements for patient identification, demographics, and care relationships across the Polaris ecosystem.

Future Considerations

Potential enhancements being evaluated:

  • Birth sex extension for clinical decision support
  • Indigenous identity extensions per TRC requirements
  • Expanded language coding for indigenous languages
  • Social determinants of health extensions
  • Patient portal access credentials

Usages:
