Logical Model: Entry Reference

Official URL: http://hl7.org/cda/us/ccda/StructureDefinition/EntryReference Version: 4.0.0
Draft as of 2025-06-20 Computable Name: EntryReference
Other Identifiers: OID:2.16.840.1.113883.10.20.22.4.122

This template represents the act of referencing another entry in the same CDA document instance. Its purpose is to remove the need to repeat the complete XML representation of the referred entry when relating one entry to another. This template can be used to reference many types of Act class derivations, such as encounters, observations, procedures etc., as it is often necessary when authoring CDA documents to repeatedly reference other Acts of these types. For example, in a Care Plan it is necessary to repeatedly relate Health Concerns, Goals, Activities and Outcomes.

The id is required and must be the same id as the entry/id it is referencing. The id cannot be a null value. Act/Code is set to nullFlavor="NP" (Not Present). This means the value is not present in the message (in act/Code).
