Overview

Note:

The FHIR API endpoints described below are currently pending production deployment for electronic health record (EHR) environments. Developers are welcome and encouraged to develop against the specifications in anticipation of production availability, which will be announced at a later date.

The Procedure resource returns medical and surgical procedures performed on or for a patient during their lifetime. Historical procedures and procedures recorded during a specific visit are returned. Surgical procedures from finalized surgical cases are returned as free-text procedures if the product is configured to write procedures from finalized cases to procedure history.

Profile Support

This resource supports the US Core Procedure Profile from the HL7 FHIR US Core Implementation Guide STU 6.1.0.
