Steps
Create a CarePlan resource with status=active, intent=plan, and category coded to assess-plan (LOINC 38717-5); populate subject, author, and period — all MustSupport
Add a CarePlan.addresses entry referencing the patient's chronic Condition resource to link the care plan to the clinical problem being managed
Create a CareTeam resource with status=active, subject referencing the patient, and participant entries listing each Practitioner with their role coded from the CareTeam participant role value set
Reference the CareTeam from CarePlan.careTeam to associate the team with the plan
Search with GET /CarePlan?patient={id}&category=assess-plan and GET /CareTeam?patient={id} to verify round-trip retrieval
Known gotchas
US Core CarePlan requires category=assess-plan specifically; omitting category or using a different code makes the resource non-conformant and invisible to EHR care planning views
CarePlan.text (narrative) is required by base FHIR and should be a human-readable summary of the plan; some servers reject CarePlan resources with an empty or status=empty narrative
CareTeam.participant.role is bound to a value set that differs between US Core versions; check the correct binding strength and value set URL for the US Core version you are targeting
