Appointment: Implementation Guidance
Usage
The Appointment resource is used to group the details of appointments that are booked or requested for the patient as a result of ReferralRequests and can be found in ReferralRequest.supportingInfo.
For the CDS API, we are using the UECDI Appointment Booking Specification. Due to this, the Appointment resource in the context of a CDS Encounter Report follows the guidance presented in the CareConnect-Appointment-1 profile from INTEROpen.
