Screens for preventive care gaps per USPSTF A and B recommendations by checking existing Procedures, Observations, and Immunizations against age/sex-appropriate due dates. Use when user asks to "check care gaps", "preventive care due", "screenings overdue", "what is this patient due for", "wellness check", "annual physical prep", or mentions "quality measures" or "HEDIS gaps". Do NOT use for disease-specific management, acute care assessment, or medication review.

# Care Gap Identifier

## Overview

Screen a patient for preventive care gaps based on USPSTF grade A and B recommendations. Query FHIR resources for prior screenings, immunizations, and relevant observations. Compare against age, sex, and risk-factor-adjusted intervals. Generate a prioritized list of overdue and upcoming preventive care items with patient-friendly descriptions.

## FHIR Resources Used

| Resource | Purpose | Key Fields |
|----------|---------|------------|
| Patient | Demographics (age, sex, risk factors) | birthDate, gender, extension (race/ethnicity) |
| Condition | Risk factors modifying screening criteria | code, clinicalStatus, onsetDateTime |
| Observation | Screening results (labs, vital signs) | code, valueQuantity, effectiveDateTime, status |
| Procedure | Completed screenings (colonoscopy, mammogram) | code, performedDateTime, status |
| Immunization | Vaccination history | vaccineCode, occurrenceDateTime, status |
| DiagnosticReport | Imaging results (mammogram, LDCT, DEXA) | code, effectiveDateTime, conclusion |
| MedicationStatement | Medications affecting screening (e.g., statins) | medicationCodeableConcept, status |
| FamilyMemberHistory | Family risk factors (cancer, CVD) | condition, relationship |

## Instructions

### Step 1: Retrieve Patient Demographics

```
Tool: fhir_read
resourceType: "Patient"
id: "[patient-id]"
```

Extract and calculate:
- Age from `birthDate`
- Sex from `gender` (administrative gender; biological sex may differ)
- Smoking status: check Observation with LOINC 72166-2

```
Tool: fhir_search
resourceType: "Observation"
queryParams: "patient=[patient-id]&code=72166-2&_sort=-date&_count=1"
```

### Step 2: Retrieve Active Conditions (Risk Factors)

```
Tool: fhir_search
resourceType: "Condition"
queryParams: "patient=[patient-id]&clinical-status=active"
```

Identify risk-modifying conditions:
- Diabetes (SNOMED 44054006) -- affects statin, BP screening thresholds
- HIV (SNOMED 86406008) -- affects STI, cancer screening frequency
- Obesity (SNOMED 414916001) -- affects diabetes screening age
- Immunocompromised states -- affects immunization recommendations
- Family history of colorectal cancer -- earlier screening start
- BRCA carrier status -- different breast cancer screening

### Step 3: Retrieve Family History

```
Tool: fhir_search
resourceType: "FamilyMemberHistory"
queryParams: "patient=[patient-id]"
```

Key family history items affecting screening:
- First-degree relative with colorectal cancer before age 60 -- start screening at 40 or 10 years before youngest case
- First-degree relative with breast cancer -- discuss earlier mammography
- Family history of abdominal aortic aneurysm -- lower threshold for AAA screening

```

## Troubleshooting

### Screening Dates Not Found in Expected Resources
- Mammography may be stored as Procedure (SNOMED 71651007), DiagnosticReport, or Observation. Search all three resource types.
- External screenings (done at another facility) may not be in the FHIR server. If critical screenings show as "never done" for a patient who reports otherwise, note that the record may be incomplete.

### Patient Gender Does Not Match Expected Screening Criteria
- FHIR `Patient.gender` is administrative gender. Sex-specific screenings (cervical, breast, prostate) should be based on biological sex, which may be in an extension (`http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-birthsex`). Check the extension before excluding screenings.
- If birth sex extension is unavailable, apply screenings based on administrative gender but note the limitation.

### Immunization Records Are Incomplete
- Patients vaccinated before EHR adoption may not have historical records. If Immunization search returns zero results, note "No immunization records found -- may need patient-reported history or state immunization registry query."
- Check state IIS (Immunization Information System) if FHIR server supports it.
