Summary

Maturity: 0

Below is an overview of the mandatory and optional search parameters and combined search parameters. See the AU eRequesting CapabilityStatements for a complete list of supported RESTful interactions for this IG.

FHIR search operations are described here and the syntax used to describe AU eRequesting interactions is defined here.

Any search parameter defined in FHIR may be 'allowed' by the system unless explicitly marked as "SHALL NOT".

Search Parameters:

The following search parameters and search parameter combinations are supported. Conformance obligations are detailed in the table above.

1. _id search parameter

   GET [base]/Coverage?_id=[id]

   Example:

   1. GET [base]/Coverage?_id=10045786

Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle with the requested Coverage, instead of just the resource itself, and allows for the inclusion of additional search parameters such as _include, _revinclude, or _lastUpdated (how to search by id of the resource)
