Retrieve Prescription API
In EPS it is not currently possible to retrieve a prescription once it has been downloaded using Prescription Release. This API interaction will allow this and is an extension to the Prescription API It does this by supporting the _include and _revinclude parameters.
The returned FHIR Bundle will be of type searchset, not a message, the resources entries will be the same.
