References: Finding encounters

Patients often have one or more encounters. You can search for all encounter resources for a specific patient using the subject search parameter.

An encounter has several details contained within the resource. Most importantly, it has a subject, which is a reference to the patient for whom this encounter exists. It also generally has references to practitioner resources who are a part of the encounter in some way.
