How-To: Separated sets of patients?
# support
l
Hello everyone! I'm currently trying to figure out how I can represent separate sets of patient. The reason behind my considerations is that I am importing patients from different sources into Medbplum and would like to store them separately from each other. Do you have any advice for me?

Hi @lul4n , there are a few options, depending on your exact use case: 1. If you need strong isolation between the patients, and all their associated data, it might make sense to make a separate Medplum project for each source (https://www.medplum.com/docs/tutorials/register#medplum-projects) 2. If your goal is mainly bookkeeping of which patients came fro each source, you can use the
Group
resource to maintain a list of patients from each source https://www.medplum.com/docs/api/fhir/resources/group?section=usage
Hi @lul4n , I just wanted to follow up and see if either of these solutions works for you

Hi @rahul1 thanks for asking. I'm going to check it out next week since i've been busy this one.
