Rules

Rules are defined by hospital staff in the admin area.

class Rule {
    Guid Id;
    int ProviderId;
    Guid RuleTemplateId;
    RuleLogicTypeCode ConditionTypeId;
    string Description;
    string SatisfiedMessage;
    string UnsatisfiedMessage;
    string DetailsJson;
    int StatusCode;
}

class SubjectAddressRule : Rule {
    SubjectAddressRuleDetails Details;  //DetailsJson Serialized and Deserialized
}

class SubjectAddressRuleDetails {
    List<SubjectAddress> SubjectAddresses;
}

class SubjectAddress {
    string Country;
    string State;
    string City;
    string PostalCode;
}

Rule.RuleTemplateId identifies the RuleTemplate the rule belongs to. For example when using location to determine whether a patient is allowed to register:

• AddressRule uses the SubjectAddressRule class.
• DistanceRule checks the center and distance of a geo location.
• PatientOrganizationRule checks the organization and its location.

Rule.ConditionTypeId defines whether a condition follows a rule by determining if it is In or NotIn the acceptable group. For example:

• In US California: Patient is allowed to register if the address is in US California.
• NotIn Organization X: Patient is allowed to register if he / she does not belong to Organization X.

RuleTemplates

RuleTemplates are defined by SnapMD staff in the admin area.

class RuleTemplate {
    Guid Id;
    Guid RuleSetId;
    RuleTypeCode RuleTypeId;
    string ImagePath;
    string Description;
    string SatisfiedMessage;
    string UnsatisfiedMessage;
    int StatusCode;
}

RuleTemplate.RuleSetId identifies the RuleSet the ruleTemplate belongs to, which defines a collections of rules.

OR conditions are applied to the rules, while AND conditions are applied to the rule sets. For example:

• Address Rule Set: Contains AddressRule and DistanceRule. If any of the rules within the set evaluated to true, the set is evaluated to true.
• Patient Organization Rule Set: Contains PatientOrganizationRule, which contains rules of its own. If any of the rules within the set evaluated to true, the set is evaluated to true.
• If a provider defines both sets, a patient must satisfy both sets in order to register with this provider.

RuleTemplate.RuleTypeId defines the class code which will be used to handle the rules. For example:

• AddressRule: SubjectAddressRule
• DistanceRule: SubjectDistanceRule
• PatientOrganizationRule: PatientOrganizationRule

RuleSets

RuleSets are defined by SnapMD staff in the admin area.

class RuleSet {
    Guid Id;
    RuleCategoryCode RuleCategoryId;
    string Description;
    string SatisfiedMessage;
    string UnsatisfiedMessage;
    int StatusCode;
}

RuleSet.RuleCategoryId defines the category of the RuleSet. For example:

• RegistrationAvailability: "Allow patients to register if they meet certain criteria."
• PatientVisibility: "Patient can see providers if/where/when they meet certain criteria."
• ProviderVisibility: "Provider can see patients if/where/when they meet certain criteria."
