Search with patient identifier or demographics?
This API action may be a good fit for your organization if you perform any of these use cases:

- Fill the gaps in demographics you have for a specific patient by using a few data points to locate a more comprehensive set of data.
- Search for a patient in a large integration network, like the Carequality Interoperability Framework.
