Emergency System for Advance Registration of Volunteer Health Professionals (ESAR-VHP): http://www.phe.gov/esarvhp/pages/about.aspx
- Within the US, the states and territories were mandated to establish a voluntary registry for health professionals. The information gathered includes certifications, trainings (etc) and is used for responding to public health disasters. There is a standard attribute definition namespace for the certifications and trainings since the information is requested / shared across legal and electronic boundaries. In addition, there are over 100+ official repositories (e.g. AAMVA etc) where the certification and training information is registered, managed and validated - and these repositories are considered the Authoritative Source.
- The detailed scenario / use case could be: There is a disaster in location X. Physicians and nurses from around the country / world react and provide telemedicine support (reviewing xrays etc electronically). Person A (Identity) needs access to medical records at an institution (Relying Party: Hospital or EHR system). Person A attributes need to be verified to a very high level (i.e. can't be self-asserted attributes) to ensure Person A is a registered physician with board certified skills (etc) and can provide a diagnosis and access the patient information.
