    Properties

    identifier?: Identifier[]

    CommunicationRequest.identifier Element

    FHIR Specification

    • Short: Unique identifier
    • Definition: Business identifiers assigned to this communication request by the performer or other systems which remain constant as the resource is updated and propagates from server to server.
    • Comment: 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.
    • Requirements: Allows identification of the communication request as it is known by various participating systems and in a way that remains consistent across servers.
    • FHIR Type: Identifier
    • Cardinality: 0..*
    • isModifier: false
    • isSummary: true
    basedOn?: Reference[]

    CommunicationRequest.basedOn Element

    FHIR Specification

    • Short: Fulfills plan or proposal
    • Definition: A plan or proposal that is fulfilled in whole or in part by this request.
    • Requirements: Allows tracing of authorization for the request and tracking whether proposals/recommendations were acted upon.

    replaces?: Reference[]

    CommunicationRequest.replaces Element

    FHIR Specification

    • Short: Request(s) replaced by this request
    • Definition: Completed or terminated request(s) whose function is taken by this new request.
    • Comment: The replacement could be because the initial request was immediately rejected (due to an issue) or because the previous request was completed, but the need for the action described by the request remains ongoing.
    • Requirements: Allows tracing the continuation of a therapy or administrative process instantiated through multiple requests.
    • FHIR Type: Reference
    • Cardinality: 0..*
    • isModifier: false

    groupIdentifier?: Identifier

    CommunicationRequest.groupIdentifier Element

    FHIR Specification

    • Short: Composite request this is part of
    • Definition: A shared identifier common to all requests that were authorized more or less simultaneously by a single author, representing the identifier of the requisition, prescription or similar form.
    • Comment: Requests are linked either by a "basedOn" relationship (i.e. one request is fulfilling another) or by having a common requisition. Requests that are part of the same requisition are generally treated independently from the perspective of changing their state or maintaining them after initial creation.
