Notes

This data model allows you to exchange plain text or rich text content with an EHR system. This is helpful if you want to display content in the EHR context with advanced text parsing capabilities (e.g., NLP, searching of the chart).

This is typically non-structured documentation about a patient's clinical care. Notes can summarize actions taken in third-party apps and provide context for the patient's chart in the EHR system. Alternatively, notes created in the EHR system may be sent outbound to apps for reference or analysis.

​You can also send files or documents with the Media and Results data models. Learn how to send a file with different data models.

This data model has event types that allow you to:

  • save, replace, or delete a note document; or
  • query for and receive note documents.

QueryResponse

Receive note file metadata and content, along with the related patient and visitor info, based on the query parameters defined in Notes.Query.

Remember that you won't receive provider info. To receive provider info with note details, we recommend listening for new notes with the Notes.New event type instead.

        UUID

      • Name
        string, null
        Reliable

        Displays the name of the system initiating the message.

    • Destinations
      Array of object

      Contains the information for the endpoint(s) receiving the request. A request must contain at least one destination, but asynchronous requests can have more than one destination. Synchronous requests like queries can only support one destination.
      Required when sending data to Redox.

      • ID
        string, null
        Reliable

        Identifies the endpoint that the request is directed to.

        UUID

      • AttemptID
        string, null
        Reliable

        Identifies the request log attempt value, which is useful when retries are possible.
        UUID

    • FacilityCode
      string, null
      Possible

      Code for the facility related to the message.
      Only use this field if a health system indicates you should. The code is specific to the health system's EHR and might not be unique across health systems. In general, the facility fields within the data models (e.g. OrderingFacility) are more reliable and informative.

  • Notes
