Introduction
In some country, there is a need to expose laboratory results through a FHIR interface. This service has to be read only and allow the receiver to view information about the laboratory result, patient, and performer they need.
A care provider wants to be able to retrieve lab results of a certain patient over a specific period of time. Including Patient information, information of the lab that performed the patient and of course all relevant reference ranges for the outcome of the result.
Through a workshop with consumers from different regions, we have established the following user stories.
- Find Lab Results by patient identifier
- Find Lab Results by time period
- Find Lab Results by type of lab observation
- Find Lab Results by method qualifier
We need to be able to extend the functionality of the interface, as new stories and needs are uncovered.
