Summary

Must-Support: 31 elements

Structures

This structure refers to these other structures:

• Patient (http://va.gov/fhir/StructureDefinition/Patient)
• Practitioner (http://va.gov/fhir/StructureDefinition/Practitioner)
• Encounter: Inpatient Condition (http://va.gov/fhir/StructureDefinition/EncounterInpatientCondition)
• Location (http://va.gov/fhir/StructureDefinition/Location)
• Organization (http://va.gov/fhir/StructureDefinition/Organization)

Slices

This structure defines the following Slices:

• The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Encounter.identifier
• The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Encounter.reasonCode
• The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Encounter.location
