For Tumour First + Germline Late requests, the ServiceRequest.basedOn element SHALL be used instead. Created and managed by the central service upon receipt of a ServiceRequest with a requisition identifier (proband requests are expected to include the extension:genomicPatientRole=Proband to identify them as the Proband request, at which point the RequestGroup will be created). Any requests submitted to the central service with the same requisition identifier will be added to the RequestGroup as additional action.resource references (it is expected that these will be consultand requests, though alternate scenarios, such as change of proband, are being investigated). Aspects of the RequestGroup will be automatically set based on the constituent requests, e.g. propagating status based on statuses of the ServiceRequests." /> <copyright value="Copyright © 2026+ NHS England Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the \\\"License\\\"); you may not use this file except in compliance with the License.
