Fields​

DocumentReferenceContext.encounter ● [Reference] list object​

Describes the clinical encounter or type of care that the document content is associated with.

DocumentReferenceContext.event ● [CodeableConcept] list object​

This list of codes represents the main clinical acts, such as a colonoscopy or an appendectomy, being documented. In some cases, the event is inherent in the type Code, such as a History and Physical Report in which the procedure being documented is necessarily a History and Physical act.

DocumentReferenceContext.period ● Period object​

The time period over which the service that is described by the document was provided.

DocumentReferenceContext.facilityType ● CodeableConcept object​

The kind of facility where the patient was seen.

DocumentReferenceContext.practiceSetting ● CodeableConcept object​

This property may convey specifics about the practice setting where the content was created, often reflecting the clinical specialty.

DocumentReferenceContext.sourcePatientInfo ● Reference object​

The Patient Information as known when the document was published. May be a reference to a version specific, or contained.

DocumentReferenceContext.related ● [Reference] list object​

Related identifiers or resources associated with the DocumentReference.

DocumentReferenceContext.modifierExtension ● [Extension] list object​

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element and that modifies the understanding of the element in which it is contained 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 can 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).

DocumentReferenceContext.extension ● [Extension] list object​

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. 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.

DocumentReferenceContext.id ● String scalar​

Interfaces​

Element interface​

Base definition for all elements in a resource. If the element is present, it must have a value for at least one of the defined elements, an @id referenced from the Narrative, or extensions
