| Level 0 | Pregnancy Information | Gestational Age | "The estimated gestational age (in weeks, or weeks and fraction of week) of the pregnancy at the time of the health care encounter (in contrast to the gestational age at birth), beginning from the time of fertilization. Needs to be correlated with the date the gestational age was documented. Gestational age (written with both weeks and days) is calculated using the best obstetrical estimated delivery date (EDD) based on the following formula: Gestational Age = (280 - (EDD - Reference Date))/ 7" |

| Level 0 | Health Status Assessments | Assessments of a health-related matter of interest, importance, or worry to a patient, patient’s authorized representative, or patient’s healthcare provider that could identify a need, problem, or condition. |
ECOG | The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status represents the patient's functional status and is used to determine how a disease impacts a patient’s daily living abilities and their overall ability to tolerate therapies in serious illness, specifically for chemotherapy. |

| Level 0 | Orders | Provider-authored request for the delivery of patient care services. Usage notes: Orders convey a provider’s intent to have a service performed on or for a patient, or to give instructions on future care. |
Service Request | 12.18 Resource ServiceRequest ServiceRequest represents an order or proposal or plan, as distinguished by ServiceRequest.intent to perform a diagnostic or other service on or for a patient. ServiceRequest represents a proposal or plan or order for a service to be performed that would result in a Procedure or DiagnosticReport, which in turn may reference one or more Observations, which summarize the performance of the procedures and associated documentation such as observations, images, findings that are relevant to the treatment/management of the subject. This resource may be used to share relevant information required to support a referral or a transfer of care request from one practitioner or organization to another when a patient is required to be referred to another provider for a consultation /second opinion and/or for short term or longer term management of one or more health issues or problems. |

Domestic Life/ Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs) | This data element carries information on Domestic Life/IADL that is exchanged as observations. (Observations are characteristics that can be tested, measured, or observed and are communicated with a name-value pair structure). Domestic Life/IADL is a broad domain. Using the conceptual framework of the the International Classification of Function (ICF), it includes aspects such as preparing simple meals, cleaning living area, shopping, etc.. Notes: • This data element is constrained to health data represented in data structures for observations. Observations should be represented using terminologies supporting this conceptual model, such as LOINC, which is designed for this purpose. Representing problems, goals, and other types of information related to functioning should use other data class structures as appropriate. • Examples of Domestic Life/IADL concepts can be found in the ICF browser at: https://apps.who.int/classifications/icfbrowser • Examples of demonstrated use of Domestic Life/IADL data can be found in the PACIO FHIR Functional Status Implementation Guide which supports exchange of observation data such as make light hot meal, light daily housework, light shopping using assessments coded with LOINC. |
LOINC. LOINC is a freely available global standard that contains a well-developed model for representing variables, answer lists, and the collections that contain them.* Many clinical assessments, scales, and other observations related to functioning are present in LOINC, including all of the variables on the PAC assessments for SNFs, IRFs, LTCHs, and HHAs. Regenstrief operates a robust process for adding new content (including functioning assessment instruments) if key gaps are identified. *PMID: 22899966 |
