Resource Profile: MessageHeader_SPOClinicalInformationResponse_General

This profile sets the expectations for the MessageHeader resource. It identifies the mandatory core elements, extensions, vocabularies, and value sets which SHALL be present in the MessageHeader as well as optional elements when using this profile.

Example

Formal View of Profile Content

This profile builds on MessageHeader. For additional information on the table definitions shown below, see the Logical Table section on the Resource Formats page.

Notes: Click the tabs below to see the different views for the profile:

The Full View shows all the base resource element information for the profile plus the Surescripts requirements.
The Hybrid View shows all the element information, but the unchanged information from the base resource is greyed out.
The Differential View only shows the changes made to the base resource (i.e., the Surescripts requirements).

Requirements Need to be able to track why resources are being changed and report in the audit log/history of the resource. May affect authorization. Comments Not all terminology uses fit this general pattern. In some cases, models should not use CodeableConcept and use Coding directly and provide their own structure for managing text, codings, translations and the relationship between elements and pre- and post-coordination.

Requirements Allows the sender of the acknowledge message to know if the request was successful or if action is needed. Comments This is a generic response to the request message. Specific data for the response will be found in MessageHeader.focus. Data Type code Binding The kind of response to a message.

Requirements Every message event is about actual data, a single resource, that is identified in the definition of the event, and perhaps some or all linked resources. Comments The data is defined where the transaction type is defined. The transaction data is always included in the bundle that is the full message. Only the root resource is specified. The resources it references should be contained in the bundle but are not also listed here. Multiple repetitions are allowed to cater for merges and other situations with multiple focal targets.
