In Caredove, we have established specific rules and procedures for mapping user-preferred language information from Ocean forms to Caredove, and downstream systems. This ensures that user language preferences are accurately recorded and transmitted as part of the referral process. This guide will help you understand the requirements and how this information is handled.

Requirements for Ocean Forms

To have user-preferred language information mapped to Caredove's downstream systems and third-party FHIR integrations, Ocean forms must adhere to the following rules:

Main Preferred Language Question

    • FHIR payload changes resulting from the Item name update described above:

      • linkId element will be named as: user_preferred_language_en

      • text element (possible value): "Main spoken language:"

      • answer element (possible available options upon answering the question):
