Introduction

A DocumentReference resource is used to describe a document that is made available to a healthcare system. A document is some sequence of bytes that is identifiable, establishes its own context (e.g., what subject, author, etc. can be displayed to the user), and has defined update management. The DocumentReference resource can be used with any document format that has a recognized mime type and that conforms to this definition.

Typically, DocumentReference resources are used in document indexing systems, such as IHE XDS , and are used to refer to:

  • CDA documents in FHIR systems
  • FHIR documents stored elsewhere (i.e. registry/repository following the XDS model)
  • PDF documents , and even digital records of faxes where sufficient information is available
  • Other kinds of documents, such as records of prescriptions

Scope and Usage

In scope of the eHealth infrastructure the primary use of the DocumentReference resource is to contain or refer to information material used in relation to PlanDefinition and Questionnaire. This information material can be in the form of embedded material (of limited size) or references to videos, PDF-files or printed material.

See eHealth-plandefinition for further details.
