Contained Patient resource with Patient.identifier.use element set to ‘usual’.

Indicates that the data within the XDS document entry be represented as a contained resource. See Section 4.5.4.4.7

A reference to a document.

Usually, this is used for documents other than those defined by FHIR.

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

The only time that a resource does not have an id is when it is being submitted to the server using a create operation.

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.

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.

This element is labelled as a modifier because the implicit rules may provide additional knowledge about the resource that modifies it's meaning or interpretation.

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).

A human-readable narrative that contains a summary of the resource, and may be used to represent the content of the resource to a human. The narrative need not encode all the structured data, but is required to contain sufficient detail to make it "clinically safe" for a human to just read the narrative. Resource definitions may define what content should be represented in the narrative to ensure clinical safety.

Contained resources do not have narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied). This may be necessary for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a "text blob" or where text is additionally entered raw or narrated and encoded in formation is added later.

These resources do not have an independent existence apart from the resource that contains them - they cannot be identified independently, and nor can they have their own independent transaction scope.

This should never be done when the content can be identified properly, as once identification is lost, it is extremely difficult (and context dependent) to restore it again.

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource. 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.

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource, and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it.

Document identifier as assigned by the source of the document. This identifier is specific to this version of the document. This unique identifier may be used elsewhere to identify this version of the document.

The structure and format of this Id shall be consistent with the specification corresponding to the formatCode attribute. (e.g. for a DICOM standard document a 64-character numeric UID, for an HL7 CDA format a serialization of the CDA Document Id extension and root in the form "oid^extension", where OID is a 64 digits max, and the Id is a 16 UTF-8 char max. If the OID is coded without the extension then the '^' character shall not be included.).

See ITI TF-2x: Z.9.1.1 Identifier and CDA root plus extension.

Other identifiers associated with the document, including version independent identifiers.

When the DocumentReference.identifier carries the entryUUID then the DocumentReference.identifier use shall be ‘official’.

The status of this document reference.

approved -> status=current deprecated -> status=superseded

The status of the underlying document.

These HL7 FHIR STU3 elements are not used in XDS, therefore would not be present.

Specifies the particular kind of document referenced (e.g. History and Physical, Discharge Summary, Progress Note). This usually equates to the purpose of making the document referenced.

Key metadata element describing the document, used in searching/filtering.

A categorization for the type of document referenced - helps for indexing and searching. This may be implied by or derived from the code specified in the DocumentReference.type.

Helps humans to assess whether the document is of interest when viewing a list of documents.

This is a metadata field from XDS/MHD.

Who or what the document is about. The document can be about a person, (patient or healthcare practitioner), a device (e.g. a machine) or even a group of subjects (such as a document about a herd of farm animals, or a set of patients that share a common exposure).

Not a contained resource. URL Points to an existing Patient Resource representing the XDS Affinity Domain Patient.

When the document was created.

Creation time is used for tracking, organizing versions and searching. This is the creation time of the document, not the source material on which it is based.

When the document reference was created.

Referencing/indexing time is used for tracking, organizing versions and searching.

Identifies who is responsible for adding the information to the document.

Expect the references Practitioner to have his Organization

Which person or organization authenticates that this document is valid.

Contained resource

Identifies the organization or group who is responsible for ongoing maintenance of and access to the document.

The type of relationship that this document has with anther document.

If this document appends another document, then the document cannot be fully understood without also accessing the referenced document.

The target document of this relationship.

Human-readable description of the source document. This is sometimes known as the "title".

Helps humans to assess whether the document is of interest.

What the document is about, rather than a terse summary of the document. It is commonly the case that records do not have a title and are collectively referred to by the display name of Record code (e.g. a "consultation" or "progress note").

A set of Security-Tag codes specifying the level of privacy/security of the Document. Note that DocumentReference.meta.security contains the security labels of the "reference" to the document, while DocumentReference.securityLabel contains a snapshot of the security labels on the document the reference refers to.

Use of the Health Care Privacy/Security Classification (HCS) system of security-tag use is recommended.

Note: This is NOT the DocumentReference.meta, as that holds the meta tags for the DocumentReference itself.

The document and format referenced. There may be multiple content element repetitions, each with a different format.

• value @ url

Identifies the type of the data in the attachment and allows a method to be chosen to interpret or render the data. Includes mime type parameters such as charset where appropriate.

Processors of the data need to be able to know how to interpret the data.

The human language of the content. The value can be any valid value according to BCP 47.

Users need to be able to choose between the languages in a set of attachments.

The actual data of the attachment - a sequence of bytes. In XML, represented using base64.

The data needs to able to be transmitted inline.

These HL7 FHIR STU3 elements are not used in XDS, therefore would not be present.

An alternative location where the data can be accessed.

The data needs to be transmitted by reference.

If both data and url are provided, the url SHALL point to the same content as the data contains. Urls may be relative references or may reference transient locations such as a wrapping envelope using cid: though this has ramifications for using signatures. Relative URLs are interpreted relative to the service url, like a resource reference, rather than relative to the resource itself. If a URL is provided, it SHALL resolve to actual data.

The number of bytes of data that make up this attachment (before base64 encoding, if that is done).

Representing the size allows applications to determine whether they should fetch the content automatically in advance, or refuse to fetch it at all.

The size is calculated on the data prior to base64 encoding, if the data is base64 encoded.

The calculated hash of the data using SHA-1. Represented using base64.

Included so that applications can verify that the contents of a location have not changed and so that a signature of the content can implicitly sign the content of an image without having to include the data in the instance or reference the url in the signature.

The IHE Document Sharing metadata element hash holds the SHA1 hash of the document. The hash is encoded in FHIR in base64Binary, whereas in XDS hexbinary is used. The hash is calculated on the data prior to base64 encoding, if the data is base64 encoded.

A label or set of text to display in place of the data.

Applications need a label to display to a human user in place of the actual data if the data cannot be rendered or perceived by the viewer.

The date that the attachment was first created.

This is often tracked as an integrity issue for use of the attachment.

These HL7 FHIR STU3 elements are not used in XDS, therefore would not be present.

An identifier of the document encoding, structure, and template that the document conforms to beyond the base format indicated in the mimeType.

Note that while IHE mostly issues URNs for format types, not all documents can be identified by a URI.

The clinical context in which the document was prepared.

These values are primarily added to help with searching for interesting/relevant documents.

Describes the clinical encounter or type of care that the document content is associated with.

When referenceIdList contains an encounter, and a FHIR Encounter is available, it may be referenced.

This list of codes represents the main clinical acts, such as a colonoscopy or an appendectomy, being documented. In some cases, the event is inherent in the typeCode, such as a "History and Physical Report" in which the procedure being documented is necessarily a "History and Physical" act.

An event can further specialize the act inherent in the type, such as where it is simply "Procedure Report" and the procedure was a "colonoscopy". If one or more event codes are included, they shall not conflict with the values inherent in the class or type elements as such a conflict would create an ambiguous situation.

The time period over which the service that is described by the document was provided.

The kind of facility where the patient was seen.

This property may convey specifics about the practice setting where the content was created, often reflecting the clinical specialty.

This is an important piece of metadata that providers often rely upon to quickly sort and/or filter out to find specific content.

The value set for this content has an example binding because it is a value set decided by community policy. Other examples exist for consideration: * HITSP created the table HITSP/C80 Table 2-148 Clinical Specialty Value Set (a value set based upon SNOMED CT which is referenced by Direct (XDR and XDM for Direct Messaging Specification, Version 1), as well as Nationwide Health Information Network (NHIN).
