encounter | 0..1 | Reference(Encounter) | The encounter in context, if any | ||
practitioner | 0..1 | Reference(Practitioner) | The practitioner applying the plan definition | ||
organization | 0..1 | Reference(Organization) | The organization applying the plan definition | ||

Out Parameters: | |||||
Name | Cardinality | Type | Binding | Profile | Documentation |
return | 1..1 | CarePlan | The CarePlan that is the result of applying the plan definition 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 data-requirements operation aggregates and returns the parameters and data requirements for the plan definition and all its dependencies as a single module definition library
Formal Definition (as a OperationDefinition).
URL: [base]/PlanDefinition/[id]/$data-requirements
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 plan definition. The result is a Library resource with a type of module-definition that contains all the parameter definitions and data requirements of the plan definition and any libraries referenced by it. Implementations SHOULD aggregate data requirements intelligently (i.e. by collapsing overlapping data requirements)
