## Resource Profile: AU eRequesting CommunicationRequest CopyTo

Official URL: http://hl7.org.au/fhir/ereq/StructureDefinition/au-erequesting-communicationrequest-copyto | Version: 0.4.0-preview

This profile sets the minimum expectations for a CommunicationRequest resource used to represent a request for a report to be copied to a clinician or patient as an additional recipient. A copy-to clinician is distinct from a request for urgent communication to a provider, as the priority may not be urgent.
It is based on the AU eRequesting CommunicationRequest and identifies the additional constraints, extensions, vocabularies and value sets that SHALL be present in the CommunicationRequest when conforming to this profile.

Usages:

- Refer to this Profile: AU eRequesting Task Communication Request
- Examples for this Profile: CommunicationRequest/communicationrequest-copyto-gp
- CapabilityStatements using this Profile: AU eRequesting Filler CapabilityStatement, AU eRequesting Patient CapabilityStatement, AU eRequesting Placer CapabilityStatement and AU eRequesting Server CapabilityStatement

Summary

Structures

This structure refers to these other structures:

- AU eRequesting Pathology Request (http://hl7.org.au/fhir/ereq/StructureDefinition/au-erequesting-servicerequest-path)
- AU eRequesting Imaging Request (http://hl7.org.au/fhir/ereq/StructureDefinition/au-erequesting-servicerequest-imag)

### Notes:

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”.

Parameter(s) | Server Conformance | Placer Conformance | Filler Conformance | Patient Conformance | Type(s) | Requirements (when used alone or in combination)
--- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | ---
_id | SHALL | MAY | MAY | MAY | `token` |

#### 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]/CommunicationRequest?_id=[id]`

   Example:

   1. GET [base]/CommunicationRequest?_id=2169591

   Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle with the requested CommunicationRequest, 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)
