Detailed Descriptions

ServiceRequest
DefinitionA record of a request for service such as diagnostic investigations, treatments, or operations to be performed.
Cardinality0...*
Aliasdiagnostic request, referral, referral request, transfer of care request
Invariants
  • dom-2: If the resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL NOT contain nested Resources
    contained.contained.empty()
  • dom-4: If a resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL NOT have a meta.versionId or a meta.lastUpdated
    contained.meta.versionId.empty() and contained.meta.lastUpdated.empty()
  • dom-3: If the resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL be referred to from elsewhere in the resource or SHALL refer to the containing resource

Mappings
  • rim: Entity. Role, or Act
  • workflow: Request

  • rim: Act[moodCode<=INT]
ServiceRequest.id
DefinitionThe logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes.
Cardinality0...1
Typestring
SummaryTrue
Comments

The only time that a resource does not have an id is when it is being submitted to the server using a create operation.

ServiceRequest.meta
DefinitionThe metadata about the resource. This is content that is maintained by the infrastructure. Changes to the content might not always be associated with version changes to the resource.
Cardinality0...1
TypeMeta
SummaryTrue
Invariants
  • ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children
    hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())
Mappings
  • rim: n/a
  • rim: N/A
ServiceRequest.implicitRules
DefinitionA reference to a set of rules that were followed when the resource was constructed, and which must be understood when processing the content. Often, this is a reference to an implementation guide that defines the special rules along with other profiles etc.
Cardinality0...1
Typeuri
ModifierTrue
SummaryTrue
Comments

Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element. Often, when used, the URL is a reference to an implementation guide that defines these special rules as part of it's narrative along with other profiles, value sets, etc.

Invariants
  • ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children
    hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())
Mappings

ServiceRequest.language
DefinitionThe base language in which the resource is written.
Cardinality0...1
Typecode
Binding

A human language.

CommonLanguages (preferred)
Comments

Language is provided to support indexing and accessibility (typically, services such as text to speech use the language tag). The html language tag in the narrative applies to the narrative. The language tag on the resource may be used to specify the language of other presentations generated from the data in the resource. Not all the content has to be in the base language. The Resource.language should not be assumed to apply to the narrative automatically. If a language is specified, it should it also be specified on the div element in the html (see rules in HTML5 for information about the relationship between xml:lang and the html lang attribute).

Invariants
  • ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children
    hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())
Mappings
  • rim: n/a
ServiceRequest.text
DefinitionA human-readable narrative that contains a summary of the resource and can be used to represent the content of the resource to a human. The narrative need not encode all the structured data, but is required to contain sufficient detail to make it "clinically safe" for a human to just read the narrative. Resource definitions may define what content should be represented in the narrative to ensure clinical safety.
Cardinality0...1
TypeNarrative
Aliasnarrative, html, xhtml, display
Comments

Contained resources do not have narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied). This may be necessary for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a "text blob" or where text is additionally entered raw or narrated and encoded information is added later.

Invariants

    hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())
Mappings
  • rim: n/a

ServiceRequest.contained
DefinitionThese resources do not have an independent existence apart from the resource that contains them - they cannot be identified independently, and nor can they have their own independent transaction scope.
Cardinality0...*
TypeResource
Aliasinline resources, anonymous resources, contained resources
Comments

This should never be done when the content can be identified properly, as once identification is lost, it is extremely difficult (and context dependent) to restore it again. Contained resources may have profiles and tags In their meta elements, but SHALL NOT have security labels.

Mappings
  • rim: Entity. Role, or Act
  • rim: N/A
ServiceRequest.extension
DefinitionMay be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.

There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.

ServiceRequest.modifierExtension
DefinitionMay be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions. Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).
Cardinality0...*
TypeExtension
ModifierTrue
Aliasextensions, user content
Requirements

Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions.

Comments

The identifier.type element is used to distinguish between the identifiers assigned by the orderer (known as the 'Placer' in HL7 v2) and the producer of the observations in response to the order (known as the 'Filler' in HL7 v2). For further discussion and examples see the resource notes section below.

Typecanonical(ActivityDefinition | PlanDefinition)
SummaryTrue
Comments

Note: This is a business identifier, not a resource identifier (see discussion). It is best practice for the identifier to only appear on a single resource instance, however business practices may occasionally dictate that multiple resource instances with the same identifier can exist - possibly even with different resource types. For example, multiple Patient and a Person resource instance might share the same social insurance number.

This has been identified as a clinical safety criterium - that this exact system/code pair was chosen explicitly, rather than inferred by the system based on some rules or language processing.

Comments

Amongst a set of alternatives, a directly chosen code is the most appropriate starting point for new translations. There is some ambiguity about what exactly 'directly chosen' implies, and trading partner agreement may be needed to clarify the use of this element and its consequences more completely.

Example Usage Scenarios

The following are example usage scenarios for the UK Core ServiceRequest profile:

  • Query for service request information for a given Patient
  • Exchange service request information within a FHIR document or message.

Profile Specific Implementation Guidance:

Mandatory and Must Support Data Elements

The following elements are identified as MustSupport, and it is expected that consumers and suppliers SHALL support these as per the MustSupport Guidance.

ElementReason
ServiceRequest.basedOnWhat the service request fulfils.
ServiceRequest.statusThe status of the order.
ServiceRequest.intentWhether the request is a proposal, plan, an original order or a reflex order.
ServiceRequest.categoryA code that classifies the service for searching, sorting and display purposes.
ServiceRequest.priorityIndicates how quickly the ServiceRequest should be addressed with respect to other requests.
ServiceRequest.codeWhat is being requested/ordered.
ServiceRequest.subjectThe individual or entity the service is ordered for.
ServiceRequest.authoredOnThe date the request was signed.
ServiceRequest.requesterWho / what is requesting the service


Extensions

More information about the extensions on the UKCore-ServiceRequest profile can be found using the links below.

basedOn

Where possible, it is expected that the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to one of the following UK Core profiles:


replaces

The resource being referenced SHALL conform to the following:


category

The slice ServiceRequest.category:genomicsWholeCaseSequencing has been added to aid in identifying the category of service request for Genomics use cases.


priority

ServiceRequest.priority has the UKCore extension Extension UKCore-PriorityReason.


code

This SHOULD be from ValueSet UKCore-ProcedureCode if possible.

Regarding this ValueSet:

  • The "procedure with explicit context" hierarchy within the ValueSet will include "referral by [person/service]" and "referral to [person/service]" concepts where there is potentially overlap with other elements of the ServiceRequest resource. If any such concepts are not appropriate for the ServiceRequest.code element then it would be expected that systems would recognise this rather than it being appropriate to explicitly exclude parts of this hierarchy within a ValueSet definition.

  • The use of concepts within this ValueSet which include context depends to some extent on whether the lifecycle of the ServiceRequest resource is covered by other elements within the resource (e.g. status, intent, doNotPerform).

  • It is understood that the Procedure hierarchy SHOULD cover all things that are likely to be requested e.g. enrolment on a care plan, referral for physiotherapy.

As the ServiceRequest resource is intended to be used for general referrals, there could be duplication of context carried within the ServiceRequest.code element as well as other elements but this is not considered an issue.


orderDetail

This SHOULD be from ValueSet UKCore-ProcedureCode if possible.

The use of text might be considered more appropriate for the type of data that the definition describes. Therefore this element SHOULD be used with caution as there is no specific UK use case identified for it.


subject

Where possible, it is expected that the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to one of the following UK Core profiles:


encounter

Where possible, it is expected that the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to Profile UKCore-Encounter.


requester

Where possible, it is expected that the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to one of the following UK Core profiles:


locationReference

Where possible, it is expected that the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to Profile UKCore-Location.


reasonReference

Where possible, it is expected that the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to one of the following UK Core profiles:


supportingInfo

Where a UK Core profile exists the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to the profile.


specimen

Where possible, it is expected that the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to Profile UKCore-Specimen.


relevantHistory

Where possible, it is expected that the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to
