Patient $patient-update

post/Patient/$patient-update

Page View

This resource establishes demographics and identifiers for an individual visiting or receiving treatment from a healthcare organization. A patient record serves as the most common base for data being exchanged since it establishes the “who” behind the data.

You can review, retrieve, create, update, or match patient records.

Supported fields and schema examples

We support any valid FHIR® field. However, we only display fields we’ve defined in our schema, which are usually based on what’s included in the U.S. Core profile. We recommend relying on U.S. Core requirements.

Our schema examples show the shape and possibility of each FHIR® resource; they aren’t code for real-time API calls. We don’t currently recommend copying and pasting these schema examples for your API calls. Consider reviewing FHIR® API actions for realistic examples for particular use cases.

$patient-update

Replace or edit details of an existing patient record in your connection's system.

Whether it's a replace or edit depends on how your connection's system handles writeback messages.
