Practitioner search returning DoctorFacilityIDs of 0 and negative numbers #151

Closed shayes-phreesia closed 3 years ago

We are using the practitioner resource to pull in a list of active providers and resources to be used during setup of our integration. The API is currently returning several records with doctor facility id = 0 or some negative number. However, none of these provider records can be found in the CPS UI as either providers or users. What do these provider records correspond to and can we filter them out? Provider with 0 id `

The Provider who is having doctor facility id = 0 or some negative number, will be filtered out in the next release.

Negative Practitioner.id values come from special "system" users that are required for various features with the core product such as Practitioner/-3 used to record data imported by LinkLogic.

The example given does not have "Provider with 0 id". It has Practitioner/1225649351001060 with . The zero value comes from one of the Practitioner.identifiers

https://mydata.athenahealth.com/fhirapidoc explains the source data for Practitioner resources includes "Service Providers". Service Providers can be marked as recipients of Test and Referral orders. Service Providers are stored separately and have zero for the DoctorFacilityID identifier. It is not possible to filter these out using the current API servers.

Service Providers can be viewed in Administration orange folders Codes > Charts > Service Providers.
