# Provider and Facility Details

Information about the healthcare providers and facilities involved with the investigation, treatment, and care of patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 are usually recorded in electronic health records. The monitoring of medical equipment availability at healthcare facilities, such as Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and respiratory devices, is also of utmost importance during the COVID-19 pandemic. Relevant details, which can be recorded using SNOMED CT include:

* Healthcare profession
* Site of care
* Health management finding
* Personal protective equipment

These data elements are described below, with example SNOMED CT subsets for each.
