Following the update of information, the patient is notified of the need for a health screening appointment. During the meeting with her physician, the examination of the patient’s prostate noted the presence of nodules. Due to this finding, a PSA is ordered for the patient using the Sex for Clinical Use as male with a note that the patient has a prostate. The following is a FHIR example for the service request for a PSA:
