Important: This is a live release of the NHS Booking API specification. However, prior to commencing development, please contact the Booking & Referral Team.
Introduction
This resource is optionally returned linked to a Healthcare Service resource. For more clarification see the diagram on the FHIR Resources overview page.
Location may optionally be returned with Slots following a search for free Slots, however it is not considered important as normally the Location of the service would already have been identified and selected during the service discovery process.
