4.2.2-ballot - Ballot Australia flag

This page is part of the Australian Base IG (v4.2.2-ballot: AU Base R4.2 Ballot 5) based on FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) R4. The current version which supersedes this version is 4.1.0. For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions

Resource Profile: AU Assertion of No Relevant Finding

Official URL: http://hl7.org.au/fhir/StructureDefinition/au-norelevantfinding Version: 4.2.2-ballot
Standards status: Trial-use Maturity Level: 1 Computable Name: AUAssertionNoRelevantFinding

Copyright/Legal: HL7 Australia© 2018+; Licensed Under Creative Commons No Rights Reserved.

This profile provides an observation information structure for asserting a clinical judgement that there are no items of specific interest, (e.g. no current medications or no history of vaccination), for a patient. An assertion of no relevant finding may be used in continuity of care or transfer or care related lists and composition sections.
