Summary of Operations

Resources are the building blocks of the FHIR standard. These resources convey the content of clinical records, identify patients or providers, or otherwise support information exchange between systems. These resources have been developed by numerous working groups at HL7, based on members' experience and subject expertise. The elements defined within FHIR resources are intended to capture and support those elements that 80% of implementers of a given resource are expected to support. Less frequently implemented elements are supported through FHIR's extensibility mechanisms. The list of all available resources in the R4 FHIR standard can be found here.
