This resource has 2 operations associated with it:
$evaluate-measure | Evaluate Measure |
$data-requirements | Data Requirements |
For more information about operations, including how they are invoked, see Operations.
The evaluate-measure operation is used to invoke an eMeasure and obtain the results

In Parameters: | |||||
Name | Cardinality | Type | Binding | Profile | Documentation |
periodStart | 1..1 | date | The start of the measurement period | ||
periodEnd | 1..1 | date | The end of the measurement period | ||
measure | 0..1 | Reference(Measure) | The measure to evaluate | ||
reportType | 0..1 | code | The type of measure report, patient, patient-list, or population | ||
patient | 0..1 | Reference(Patient) | Patient to evaluate against | ||
practitioner | 0..1 | Reference(Practitioner) | Practitioner to evaluate | ||
lastReceivedOn | 0..1 | dateTime | The date the results of this measure were last received | ||
Out Parameters: | |||||
Name | Cardinality | Type | Binding | Profile | Documentation |
return | 1..1 | MeasureReport | The results of the measure calculation Note: as this the only out parameter, it is a resource, and it has the name 'return', the result of this operation is returned directly as a resource |
The effect of invoking this operation is to calculate the measure for the given patient, or all patients if no patient is supplied, and return the results as a MeasureReport resource of the appropriate type
The data-requirements operation aggregates and returns the parameters and data requirements for the measure and all its dependencies as a single module definition

In Parameters: | |||||
Name | Cardinality | Type | Binding | Profile | Documentation |
periodStart | 1..1 | date | The start of the measurement period | ||
periodEnd | 1..1 | date | The end of the measurement period | ||
Out Parameters: | |||||
Name | Cardinality | Type | Binding | Profile | Documentation |
return | 1..1 | Library | The result of the requirements gathering Note: as this the only out parameter, it is a resource, and it has the name 'return', the result of this operation is returned directly as a resource |
The effect of invoking this operation is to determine the aggregate set of data requirements and dependencies for the measure. The result is a Library resource with a type of module-definition that contains all the parameter definitions and data requirements of the libraries referenced by the measures. Implementations SHOULD aggregate data requirements intelligently (i.e. by collapsing overlapping data requirements)
