Expanded Food Security Screener formatted as a FHIR Questionnaire

The Expanded Food Security Screener (FSS-Exp) is a validated tool used to assess food security based on questions that ask about ability to afford food. The FSS-Exp quickly gathers information on an individual’s economic access to food, their ability to get groceries into their home, and their ability to prepare meals, with or without help. This resource is a FHIR version (based on the FHIR Structured Data Capture profile) of the FSS-Exp that implementers may use to collect food security data electronically and transmit in standardized and interoperable format.
