DataStandardsWales-Endpoint
The Endpoint resource contains information about a physical place where services are provided and resources and participants may be stored, found, contained, or accommodated. Typical examples include buildings, wards, corridors, rooms or beds, but may also include mobile clinics, a vehicle or lift, or a patient's home.
The DataStandardsWales-Endpoint profile is derived from the HL7 R4 Endpoint Standard. It defines additional rules for use within health and care organisations in Wales.

Endpoint | I | Endpoint | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdEndpoint The technical details of an endpoint that can be used for electronic services DefinitionThe technical details of an endpoint that can be used for electronic services, such as for web services providing XDS.b or a REST endpoint for another FHIR server. This may include any security context information.

This element is labeled as a modifier because the status contains codes that mark the endpoint as not currently valid. The status of the endpoint. EndpointStatus (required)Constraints

connectionType | Σ | 1..1 | CodingBinding | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdEndpoint.connectionType Protocol/Profile/Standard to be used with this endpoint connection DefinitionA coded value that represents the technical details of the usage of this endpoint, such as what WSDLs should be used in what way. (e.g. XDS.b/DICOM/cds-hook). For additional connectivity details for the protocol, extensions will be used at this point, as in the XDS example. EndpointConnectionType (extensible) Constraints

managingOrganization | Σ I | 0..1 | Reference(Data Standards Wales Organization) | Element IdEndpoint.managingOrganization Organization that manages this endpoint (might not be the organization that exposes the endpoint) DefinitionThe organization that manages this endpoint (even if technically another organization is hosting this in the cloud, it is the organization associated with the data). This property is not typically used when searching for Endpoint resources for usage. The typical usage is via the reference from an applicable Organization/Location/Practitioner resource, which is where the context is provided. Multiple Locations may reference a single endpoint, and don't have to be within the same organization resource, but most likely within the same organizational hierarchy.

contact | I | 0..* | ContactPoint | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdEndpoint.contact Contact details for source (e.g. troubleshooting) DefinitionContact details for a human to contact about the subscription. The primary use of this for system administrator troubleshooting.

period | Σ I | 0..1 | Period | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdEndpoint.period Interval the endpoint is expected to be operational DefinitionThe interval during which the endpoint is expected to be operational. A Period specifies a range of time; the context of use will specify whether the entire range applies (e.g. "the patient was an inpatient of the hospital for this time range") or one value from the range applies (e.g. "give to the patient between these two times"). Period is not used for a duration (a measure of elapsed time). See Duration.

payloadType | Σ | 1..* | CodeableConcept | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdEndpoint.payloadType The type of content that may be used at this endpoint (e.g. XDS Discharge summaries) DefinitionThe payload type describes the acceptable content that can be communicated on the endpoint. The payloadFormat describes the serialization format of the data, where the payloadType indicates the specific document/schema that is being transferred; e.g. DischargeSummary or CarePlan.
|
payloadMimeType | Σ | 0..* | codeBinding | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdEndpoint.payloadMimeType Mimetype to send. If not specified, the content could be anything (including no payload, if the connectionType defined this) DefinitionThe mime type to send the payload in - e.g. application/fhir+xml, application/fhir+json. If the mime type is not specified, then the sender could send any content (including no content depending on the connectionType). Sending the payload has obvious security consequences. The server is responsible for ensuring that the content is appropriately secured. The mime type of an attachment. Any valid mime type is allowed. Mime Types (required)Constraints
|
address | Σ | 1..1 | url | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element IdEndpoint.address The technical base address for connecting to this endpoint DefinitionThe uri that describes the actual end-point to connect to. For rest-hook, and websocket, the end-point must be an http: or https: URL; for email, a mailto: url, for sms, a tel: url, and for message the endpoint can be in any form of url the server understands (usually, http: or mllp:). The URI is allowed to be relative; in which case, it is relative to the server end-point (since there may be more than one, clients should avoid using relative URIs) This address will be to the service base, without any parameters, or sub-services or resources tacked on. E.g. for a WADO-RS endpoint, the url should be "https://pacs.hospital.org/wado-rs" and not "https://pacs.hospital.org/wado-rs/studies/1.2.250.1.59.40211.12345678.678910/series/1.2.250.1.59.40211.789001276.14556172.67789/instances/...".
