Plan-Net Resource Profiles

Opala's Provider Directory supports the Da Vinci PDEX Plan-Net standard for search and retrieval. Resources in Plan-Net are described as profiles. The profile is presented in five different forms.

Differential Table	A view of the differential statement (see above). For context, additional information not in the differential is also shown partially transparent
Snapshot Table	A view of the snapshot produced by the profile (see above). The information is a comprehensive view of what the profile means

JSON Template	A view of the profile in JSON format

The Provider Directory API currently supports the following profiles:

Base URL

Use the following base URL to access any of the endpoints listed above:

https://api.opalahealth.io:45000/pdir/premera/v1/fhir/r4

Add the search criteria to this URL to retrieve the endpoint's data.

Note. Results are limited to 10,000. If your query returns more files than that, Opala gives a 413 error. To avoid this (or to further limit your results if you recieve a 413), filter the results using search criteria to limit the number of files returned.

https://provdir.pcinc.io:59101/pcinc/fhir/r4
