It can be used to describe and expose existing knowledge assets such as logic libraries and information model descriptions, as well as to describe a collection of knowledge assets. 3 Linkage Linkage Identifies two or more records (resource instances) that refer to the same real-world "occurrence". 3 List List A list is a curated collection of resources. 3 Location Location Details and position information for a physical place where services are provided and resources and participants may be stored, found, contained, or accommodated. 3 ManufacturedItemDefinition ManufacturedItemDefinition The definition and characteristics of a medicinal manufactured item, such as a tablet or capsule, as contained in a packaged medicinal product. 3 Measure Measure The Measure resource provides the definition of a quality measure. 3 MeasureReport MeasureReport The MeasureReport resource contains the results of the calculation of a measure; and optionally a reference to the resources involved in that calculation. 3 Media Media A photo, video, or audio recording acquired or used in healthcare. The actual content may be inline or provided by direct reference. 3 Medication Medication This resource is primarily used for the identification and definition of a medication for the purposes of prescribing, dispensing, and administering a medication as well as for making statements about medication use. 3 MedicationAdministration MedicationAdministration Describes the event of a patient consuming or otherwise being administered a medication. This may be as simple as swallowing a tablet or it may be a long running infusion. Related resources tie this event to the authorizing prescription, and the specific encounter between patient and health care practitioner. 3 MedicationDispense MedicationDispense Indicates that a medication product is to be or has been dispensed for a named person/patient. This includes a description of the medication product (supply) provided and the instructions for administering the medication. The medication dispense is the result of a pharmacy system responding to a medication order. 3 MedicationKnowledge MedicationKnowledge Information about a medication that is used to support knowledge. 3 MedicationRequest MedicationRequest An order or request for both supply of the medication and the instructions for administration of the medication to a patient. The resource is called "MedicationRequest" rather than "MedicationPrescription" or "MedicationOrder" to generalize the use across inpatient and outpatient settings, including care plans, etc., and to harmonize with workflow patterns. 3 MedicationStatement MedicationStatement A record of a medication that is being consumed by a patient. A MedicationStatement may indicate that the patient may be taking the medication now or has taken the medication in the past or will be taking the medication in the future. The source of this information can be the patient, significant other (such as a family member or spouse), or a clinician. A common scenario where this information is captured is during the history taking process during a patient visit or stay. The medication information may come from sources such as the patient's memory, from a prescription bottle, or from a list of medications the patient, clinician or other party maintains. The primary difference between a medication statement and a medication administration is that the medication administration has complete administration information and is based on actual administration information from the person who administered the medication. A medication statement is often, if not always, less specific. There is no required date/time when the medication was administered, in fact we only know that a source has reported the patient is taking this medication, where details such as time, quantity, or rate or even medication product may be incomplete or missing or less precise. As stated earlier, the medication statement information may come from the patient's memory, from a prescription bottle or from a list of medications the patient, clinician or other party maintains. Medication administration is more formal and is not missing detailed information. 3 MedicinalProductDefinition MedicinalProductDefinition Detailed definition of a medicinal product, typically for uses other than direct patient care (e.g. regulatory use, drug catalogs, to support prescribing, adverse events management etc.). 3 MessageDefinition MessageDefinition Defines the characteristics of a message that can be shared between systems, including the type of event that initiates the message, the content to be transmitted and what response(s), if any, are permitted. 3 MessageHeader MessageHeader The header for a message exchange that is either requesting or responding to an action. The reference(s) that are the subject of the action as well as other information related to the action are typically transmitted in a bundle in which the MessageHeader resource instance is the first resource in the bundle. 3 MolecularSequence MolecularSequence Raw data describing a biological sequence. 3 NamingSystem NamingSystem A curated namespace that issues unique symbols within that namespace for the identification of concepts, people, devices, etc. Represents a "System" used within the Identifier and Coding data types. 3 NutritionOrder NutritionOrder A request to supply a diet, formula feeding (enteral) or oral nutritional supplement to a patient/resident. 3 NutritionProduct NutritionProduct A food or fluid product that is consumed by patients. 3 Observation Observation Measurements and simple assertions made about a patient, device or other subject. 3 ObservationDefinition ObservationDefinition Set of definitional characteristics for a kind of observation or measurement produced or consumed by an orderable health care service. 3 OperationDefinition OperationDefinition A formal computable definition of an operation (on the RESTful interface) or a named query (using the search interaction). 3 OperationOutcome OperationOutcome A collection of error, warning, or information messages that result from a system action. 3 Organization Organization A formally or informally recognized grouping of people or organizations formed for the purpose of achieving some form of collective action. Includes companies, institutions, corporations, departments, community groups, healthcare practice groups, payer/insurer, etc. 3 OrganizationAffiliation OrganizationAffiliation Defines an affiliation/assotiation/relationship between 2 distinct oganizations, that is not a part-of relationship/sub-division relationship. 3 PackagedProductDefinition PackagedProductDefinition A medically related item or items, in a container or package. 3 Patient Patient Demographics and other administrative information about an individual or animal receiving care or other health-related services. 3 PaymentNotice PaymentNotice This resource provides the status of the payment for goods and services rendered, and the request and response resource references. 3 PaymentReconciliation PaymentReconciliation This resource provides the details including amount of a payment and allocates the payment items being paid. 3 Person Person Demographics and administrative information about a person independent of a specific health-related context. 3 PlanDefinition PlanDefinition This resource allows for the definition of various types of plans as a sharable, consumable, and executable artifact. The resource is general enough to support the description of a broad range of clinical and non-clinical artifacts such as clinical decision support rules, order sets, protocols, and drug quality specifications. 3 Practitioner Practitioner A person who is directly or indirectly involved in the provisioning of healthcare. 3 PractitionerRole PractitionerRole A specific set of Roles/Locations/specialties/services that a practitioner may perform at an organization for a period of time. 3 Procedure Procedure An action that is or was performed on or for a patient. This can be a physical intervention like an operation, or less invasive like long term services, counseling, or hypnotherapy. 3 Provenance Provenance Provenance of a resource is a record that describes entities and processes involved in producing and delivering or otherwise influencing that resource. Provenance provides a critical foundation for assessing authenticity, enabling trust, and allowing reproducibility. Provenance assertions are a form of contextual metadata and can themselves become important records with their own provenance. Provenance statement indicates clinical significance in terms of confidence in authenticity, reliability, and trustworthiness, integrity, and stage in lifecycle (e.g. Document Completion - has the artifact been legally authenticated), all of which may impact security, privacy, and trust policies. 3 Questionnaire Questionnaire A structured set of questions intended to guide the collection of answers from end-users. Questionnaires provide detailed control over order, presentation, phraseology and grouping to allow coherent, consistent data collection. 3 QuestionnaireResponse QuestionnaireResponse A structured set of questions and their answers. The questions are ordered and grouped into coherent subsets, corresponding to the structure of the grouping of the questionnaire being responded to. 3 RegulatedAuthorization RegulatedAuthorization Regulatory approval, clearance or licencing related to a regulated product, treatment, facility or activity that is cited in a guidance, regulation, rule or legislative act. An example is Market Authorization relating to a Medicinal Product. 3 RelatedPerson RelatedPerson Information about a person that is involved in the care for a patient, but who is not the target of healthcare, nor has a formal responsibility in the care process. 3 RequestGroup RequestGroup A group of related requests that can be used to capture intended activities that have inter-dependencies such as "give this medication after that one". 3 ResearchDefinition ResearchDefinition The ResearchDefinition resource describes the conditional state (population and any exposures being compared within the population) and outcome (if specified) that the knowledge (evidence, assertion, recommendation) is about. 3 ResearchElementDefinition ResearchElementDefinition The ResearchElementDefinition resource describes a "PICO" element that knowledge (evidence, assertion, recommendation) is about. 3 ResearchStudy ResearchStudy A process where a researcher or organization plans and then executes a series of steps intended to increase the field of healthcare-related knowledge.

A ResearchStudy involves the gathering of information about human or animal subjects. 3 ResearchSubject ResearchSubject A physical entity which is the primary unit of operational and/or administrative interest in a study. 3 RiskAssessment RiskAssessment An assessment of the likely outcome(s) for a patient or other subject as well as the likelihood of each outcome. 3 Schedule Schedule A container for slots of time that may be available for booking appointments. 3 SearchParameter SearchParameter A search parameter that defines a named search item that can be used to search/filter on a resource. 3 ServiceRequest ServiceRequest A record of a request for service such as diagnostic investigations, treatments, or operations to be performed. 3 Slot Slot A slot of time on a schedule that may be available for booking appointments. 3 Specimen Specimen A sample to be used for analysis. 3 SpecimenDefinition SpecimenDefinition A kind of specimen with associated set of requirements. 3 StructureDefinition StructureDefinition A definition of a FHIR structure. This resource is used to describe the underlying resources, data types defined in FHIR, and also for describing extensions and constraints on resources and data types. 3 StructureMap StructureMap A Map of relationships between 2 structures that can be used to transform data. 3 Subscription Subscription The subscription resource is used to define a push-based subscription from a server to another system. Once a subscription is registered with the server, the server checks every resource that is created or updated, and if the resource matches the given criteria, it sends a message on the defined "channel" so that another system can take an appropriate action. 3 SubscriptionStatus SubscriptionStatus The SubscriptionStatus resource describes the state of a Subscription during notifications. 3 SubscriptionTopic SubscriptionTopic Describes a stream of resource state changes identified by trigger criteria and annotated with labels useful to filter projections from this topic. 3 Substance Substance A homogeneous material with a definite composition. 3 SubstanceDefinition SubstanceDefinition The detailed description of a substance, typically at a level beyond what is used for prescribing. 3 SupplyDelivery SupplyDelivery Record of delivery of what is supplied. 3 SupplyRequest SupplyRequest A record of a request for a medication, substance or device used in the healthcare setting. 3 Task Task A task to be performed. 3 TerminologyCapabilities TerminologyCapabilities A TerminologyCapabilities resource documents a set of capabilities (behaviors) of a FHIR Terminology Server that may be used as a statement of actual server functionality or a statement of required or desired server implementation. 3 TestReport TestReport A summary of information based on the results of executing a TestScript. 3 TestScript TestScript A structured set of tests against a FHIR server or client implementation to determine compliance against the FHIR specification. 3 ValueSet ValueSet A ValueSet resource instance specifies a set of codes drawn from one or more code systems, intended for use in a particular context. Value sets link between [CodeSystem](https://hl7.org/fhir/R4B/CodeSystem.html) definitions and their use in [coded elements](https://hl7.org/fhir/terminologies.html). 3 VerificationResult VerificationResult Describes validation requirements, source(s), status and dates for one or more elements. 3 VisionPrescription VisionPrescription An authorization for the provision of glasses and/or contact lenses to a patient. 2 Parameters Parameters This resource is a non-persisted resource used to pass information into and back from an [operation](https://hl7.org/fhir/operations.html).

AdministraciónMedicación / AdministracionMedicamento
Indicates that a medication product is to be or has been dispensed for a named person/patient. This includes a description of the medication product (supply) provided and the instructions for administering the medication. The medication dispense is the result of a pharmacy system responding to a medication order.
DispensaciónMedicación /DispensacionMedicamento
Information about a medication that is used to support knowledge.
An order or request for both supply of the medication and the instructions for administration of the medication to a patient. The resource is called "MedicationRequest" rather than "MedicationPrescription" or "MedicationOrder" to generalize the use across inpatient and outpatient settings, including care plans, etc., and to harmonize with workflow patterns.
PrescripciónMedicaciónTODO /PrescripcionMedicamento
A record of a medication that is being consumed by a patient. A MedicationStatement may indicate that the patient may be taking the medication now or has taken the medication in the past or will be taking the medication in the future. The source of this information can be the patient, significant other (such as a family member or spouse), or a clinician. A common scenario where this information is captured is during the history taking process during a patient visit or stay. The medication information may come from sources such as the patient's memory, from a prescription bottle, or from a list of medications the patient, clinician or other party maintains. The primary difference between a medication statement and a medication administration is that the medication administration has complete administration information and is based on actual administration information from the person who administered the medication. A medication statement is often, if not always, less specific. There is no required date/time when the medication was administered, in fact we only know that a source has reported the patient is taking this medication, where details such as time, quantity, or rate or even medication product may be incomplete or missing or less precise. As stated earlier, the medication statement information may come from the patient's memory, from a prescription bottle or from a list of medications the patient, clinician or other party maintains. Medication administration is more formal and is not missing detailed information.

Provenance of a resource is a record that describes entities and processes involved in producing and delivering or otherwise influencing that resource. Provenance provides a critical foundation for assessing authenticity, enabling trust, and allowing reproducibility. Provenance assertions are a form of contextual metadata and can themselves become important records with their own provenance. Provenance statement indicates clinical significance in terms of confidence in authenticity, reliability, and trustworthiness, integrity, and stage in lifecycle (e.g. Document Completion - has the artifact been legally authenticated), all of which may impact security, privacy, and trust policies.
