Shared Health Specification and Guide Version 2.0 Revision F

A container for a collection of resources.

The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes.

Usage Note: This value is assigned by the PrescribeIT™ system upon receipt of a bundle and returned synchronously in the response to that bundle. This ID should not be confused with the traceID that is also returned in the response and is generally used when diagnosing message failures within the PrescribeIT™ system logs. The Bundle.id is also used by receiving systems to remove the bundle from their inbox after they have successfully retrieved the bundle.

The metadata about the resource. This is content that is maintained by the infrastructure. Changes to the content may not always be associated with version changes to the resource.

unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references).

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. In order to make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.

There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.

The version specific identifier, as it appears in the version portion of the URL. This values changes when the resource is created, updated, or deleted.

The server assigns this value, and ignores what the client specifies, except in the case that the server is imposing version integrity on updates/deletes.

When the resource last changed - e.g. when the version changed.

This value is always populated except when the resource is first being created. The server / resource manager sets this value; what a client provides is irrelevant.

A list of profiles StructureDefinitions that this resource claims to conform to. The URL is a reference to StructureDefinition.url.

It is up to the server and/or other infrastructure of policy to determine whether/how these claims are verified and/or updated over time. The list of profile URLs is a set.

A list of profiles StructureDefinitions that this resource claims to conform to. The URL is a reference to StructureDefinition.url.

Fixed value: http://sharedhealth.exchange/fhir/StructureDefinition/interaction-bundle-query-organization

Security labels applied to this resource. These tags connect specific resources to the overall security policy and infrastructure.

The security labels can be updated without changing the stated version of the resource The list of security labels is a set. Uniqueness is based the system/code, and version and display are ignored.

Tags applied to this resource. Tags are intended to be used to identify and relate resources to process and workflow, and applications are not required to consider the tags when interpreting the meaning of a resource.

The identification of the code system that defines the meaning of the symbol in the code.

Need to be unambiguous about the source of the definition of the symbol.

Fixed value: https://fhir.infoway-inforoute.ca/CodeSystem/sharedspecificationversion

The version of the code system which was used when choosing this code. Note that a well-maintained code system does not need the version reported, because the meaning of codes is consistent across versions. However this cannot consistently be assured. and when the meaning is not guaranteed to be consistent, the version SHOULD be exchanged.

Where the terminology does not clearly define what string should be used to identify code system versions, the recommendation is to use the date (expressed in FHIR date format) on which that version was officially published as the version date.

A symbol in syntax defined by the system. The symbol may be a predefined code or an expression in a syntax defined by the coding system (e.g. post-coordination).

Need to refer to a particular code in the system.

Fixed value: Shared2.0

A representation of the meaning of the code in the system, following the rules of the system.

Need to be able to carry a human-readable meaning of the code for readers that do not know the system.

Indicates that this coding was chosen by a user directly - i.e. off a pick list of available items (codes or displays).

This has been identified as a clinical safety criterium - that this exact system/code pair was chosen explicitly, rather than inferred by the system based on some rules or language processing.

Amongst a set of alternatives, a directly chosen code is the most appropriate starting point for new translations. There is some ambiguity about what exactly 'directly chosen' implies, and trading partner agreement may be needed to clarify the use of this element and its consequences more completely.

A reference to a set of rules that were followed when the resource was constructed, and which must be understood when processing the content.

Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element as much as possible.

The base language in which the resource is written.

Language is provided to support indexing and accessibility (typically, services such as text to speech use the language tag). The html language tag in the narrative applies to the narrative. The language tag on the resource may be used to specify the language of other presentations generated from the data in the resource Not all the content has to be in the base language. The Resource.language should not be assumed to apply to the narrative automatically. If a language is specified, it should it also be specified on the div element in the html (see rules in HTML5 for information about the relationship between xml:lang and the html lang attribute).

Indicates the purpose of this bundle- how it was intended to be used.

Fixed value: searchset

If a set of search matches, this is the total number of matches for the search (as opposed to the number of results in this bundle).

Only used if the bundle is a search result set.

A series of links that provide context to this entry.

The Absolute URL for the resource. The fullUrl SHALL not disagree with the id in the resource. The fullUrl is a version independent reference to the resource. The fullUrl element SHALL have a value except that: * fullUrl can be empty on a POST (although it does not need to when specifying a temporary id for reference in the bundle) * Results from operations might involve resources that are not identified.

fullUrl may not be unique in the context of a resource. Note that since FHIR resources do not need to be served through the FHIR API, the absolute URL may not end with the logical id of the resource (Resource.id), but if the fullUrl does look like a RESTful server URL (e.g. meets the regex, then it SHALL end with the Resource.id.

Why this entry is in the result set - whether it's included as a match or because of an _include requirement.

There is only one mode. In some corner cases, a resource may be included because it is both a match and an include. In these circumstances, 'match' takes precedence.

When searching, the server's search ranking score for the entry.

Servers are not required to return a ranking score. 1 is most relevant, and 0 is least relevant. Often, search results are sorted by score, but the client may specify a different sort order.

The location header created by processing this operation.

The etag for the resource, it the operation for the entry produced a versioned resource.

This has to match the version id in the header if a resource is included.

The date/time that the resource was modified on the server.

This has to match the same time in the meta header if a resource is included.

Digital Signature - base64 encoded. XML DigSIg or a JWT.

This element allows capturing signatures on documents. It also allows signatures on messages, transactions or even query responses. It may support content-authentication, non-repudiation or other business cases. This is primarily relevant where the bundle may travel through multiple hops or via other mechanisms where HTTPS non-repudiation is insufficient.

The signature could be created by the "author" of the bundle or by the originating device. Requirements around inclusion of a signature, verification of signatures and treatment of signed/non-signed bundles is implementation-environment specific.
