An amount of service being requested which can be a quantity ( for example 1,500 home modification), a ratio ( for example, 20 half day visits per month), or a range (2.0 to 1.8 Gy per fraction). (choose any one of quantity*, but only one)

ServiceRequest.quantityRange ● Range object​

An amount of service being requested which can be a quantity ( for example 1,500 home modification), a ratio ( for example, 20 half day visits per month), or a range (2.0 to 1.8 Gy per fraction). (choose any one of quantity*, but only one)

ServiceRequest.subject ● Reference object​

On whom or what the service is to be performed. This is usually a human patient, but can also be requested on animals, groups of humans or animals, devices such as dialysis machines, or even locations (typically for environmental scans).

ServiceRequest.encounter ● Reference object​

An encounter that provides additional information about the healthcare context in which this request is made.

ServiceRequest.occurrenceDateTime ● Date scalar​

The date/time at which the requested service should occur. (choose any one of occurrence*, but only one)

ServiceRequest.occurrencePeriod ● Period object​

The date/time at which the requested service should occur. (choose any one of occurrence*, but only one)

ServiceRequest.occurrenceTiming ● Timing object​

The date/time at which the requested service should occur. (choose any one of occurrence*, but only one)

ServiceRequest.asNeededBoolean ● Boolean scalar​

If a CodeableConcept is present, it indicates the pre-condition for performing the service. For example pain , on flare-up , etc. (choose any one of asNeeded*, but only one)

ServiceRequest.asNeededCodeableConcept ● CodeableConcept object​

If a CodeableConcept is present, it indicates the pre-condition for performing the service. For example pain , on flare-up , etc. (choose any one of asNeeded*, but only one)

ServiceRequest.authoredOn ● Date scalar​

When the request transitioned to being actionable.

ServiceRequest.requester ● Reference object​

The individual who initiated the request and has responsibility for its activation.

ServiceRequest.performerType ● CodeableConcept object​

Desired type of performer for doing the requested service.

ServiceRequest.performer ● [Reference] list object​

The desired performer for doing the requested service. For example, the surgeon, dermatopathologist, endoscopist, etc.

ServiceRequest.locationCode ● [CodeableConcept] list object​

The preferred location(s) where the procedure should actually happen in coded or free text form. E.g. at home or nursing day care center.

ServiceRequest.locationReference ● [Reference] list object​

A reference to the the preferred location(s) where the procedure should actually happen. E.g. at home or nursing day care center.

ServiceRequest.reasonCode ● [CodeableConcept] list object​

An explanation or justification for why this service is being requested in coded or textual form. This is often for billing purposes. May relate to the resources referred to in supportingInfo.

ServiceRequest.reasonReference ● [Reference] list object​

Indicates another resource that provides a justification for why this service is being requested. May relate to the resources referred to in supportingInfo.

ServiceRequest.insurance ● [Reference] list object​

Insurance plans, coverage extensions, pre-authorizations and/or pre-determinations that may be needed for delivering the requested service.

ServiceRequest.supportingInfo ● [Reference] list object​

Additional clinical information about the patient or specimen that may influence the services or their interpretations. This information includes diagnosis, clinical findings and other observations. In laboratory ordering these are typically referred to as ask at order entry questions (AOEs) . This includes observations explicitly requested by the producer (filler) to provide context or supporting information needed to complete the order. For example, reporting the amount of inspired oxygen for blood gas measurements.

ServiceRequest.specimen ● [Reference] list object​

One or more specimens that the laboratory procedure will use.

ServiceRequest.bodySite ● [CodeableConcept] list object​

Anatomic location where the procedure should be performed. This is the target site.

ServiceRequest.note ● [Annotation] list object​

Any other notes and comments made about the service request. For example, internal billing notes.

ServiceRequest.patientInstruction ● String scalar​

Instructions in terms that are understood by the patient or consumer.

ServiceRequest.relevantHistory ● [Reference] list object​

Key events in the history of the request.

ServiceRequest.text ● Narrative object​

A 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.

ServiceRequest.contained ● [Resource] list interface​

These 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.

ServiceRequest.extension ● [Extension] list object​

May 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.

ServiceRequest.modifierExtension ● [Extension] list object​

May 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).

ServiceRequest.id ● String scalar​

The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes.

ServiceRequest.meta ● Meta object​

The 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.

ServiceRequest.implicitRules ● Uri scalar​

A 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.

ServiceRequest.language ● String scalar​

The base language in which the resource is written.

Interfaces​

Resource interface​

This is the base resource type for everything.
