When dealing with groups, goals may also reflect health state, such as a reduction of addiction behaviors. However, they may also reflect population health objectives such as education, screening, etc.
Organizational goals are typically not health state specific but may instead identify measurement targets such as infection control, cost management, patient satisfaction, etc.
Note that this resource represents a specific goal instance for a particular patient, group, etc. It is not intended to be used to define types of "potential" goals as part of an order set or protocol. These requirements will be supported as part of future resources.
Goals are typically established in the context of a CarePlan . However, goals may also be directly referenced by request-type resources (e.g. MedicationOrder or ReferralRequest ) by using an extension.
Goals are often evaluated using Observations .
