DocumentReference $documentreference-create

post/DocumentReference/$documentreference-create
Page View

This resource contains metadata for any kind of document so that you can locate the document in a system. Typically, you may use this as a reference in another resource type that includes the subject, author, and context for a related document.

You may want to use this resource if:

  • You want raw XML data.
  • You want to pick which documents to view or retrieve.

If you’re familiar with our Redox data models, this is the FHIR® representation of the ClinicalSummary.DocumentGet. Learn more about the DocumentGet event type. Or, if you only want to retrieve the patient’s latest CDA, check out the PatientQuery event type.

You can review, retrieve, create, or edit document records.
