      <div> 
        <p> This operation allows a client to find an identified list for a particular function by
           its function. The operation takes two parameters, the identity of a patient, and the name
           of a functional list.     The list of defined functional lists can be found at 
          <a href="lifecycle.html#lists">Current Resource Lists</a> . Applications are not required to support all the lists, and may define additional lists
           of their own.   If the system is able to locate a list that serves the identified purpose,
           it returns it as the body of the response with a 200 OK status. If the resource cannot
           be located, the server returns a 404 not found (optionally with an OperationOutcome resource)
