The Retrieval for Clinical Knowledge Profile describes how Health IT systems, Person Health Records, and HIEs can retrieve clinical knowledge on a topic suitable for presentation to a clinician or patient.

Summary

Each time an EHR or PHR wants to integrate with a new provider of clinical content, a new interface needs to be developed. The Retrieval for Clinical Knowledge (RCK) Profile provides a more complete implementation specification that will ensure that the same interface can be used across a wide variety of clinical content.

Benefits

This profile provides a consistent set of rules for issuing knowledge requests for information that is either patient-, clinician- or payer-oriented, and on how to return results so that EHRs and PHRs can process the results and display them in a uniform way.
