Parameters

UseNameCardinalityTypeBindingDocumentation
INresource1..1Person

The social security number of the person on which this operation is executed, wrapped in a Person. If the person exists in the infrastructure a link to the patient is provided

OUTreturn1..1Bundle

A bundle containing a set of Person records that represent possible matches, optionally it may also contain an OperationOutcome with further information about the search results (such as warnings or information messages, such as a count of records that were close but eliminated) If the operation was unsuccessful, then an OperationOutcome may be returned along with a BadRequest status Code (e.g. security issue, or insufficient properties in person fragment - check against profile) Note: as this the only out parameter, it is a resource, and it has the name 'return', the result of this operation is returned directly as a resource.
