## Declaring Conformance

Page standards status: Informative

A system declaring conformance to AU Patient Summary (AU PS) SHALL implement the conformance requirements as defined for one or both of the following actors:

- AU PS Consumer
- AU PS Producer

AU PS does not define any FHIR-specific interactions and therefore does not include a CapabilityStatement.

Systems implementing AU PS MAY implement interactions defined in other CapabilityStatements, for example:

- IPS Server Capability Statement
- International Patient Access Server CapabilityStatement
- International Patient Access Client CapabilityStatement

### FHIR Server CapabilityStatement

Servers that implement support for AU PS profiles, declare conformance to each profile by hosting a CapabilityStatement resource at [server-base-url]/metadata that is available to both authenticated and unauthenticated clients. The capability statement declares support for a resource as either a base profile using CapabilityStatement.rest.resource.profile or supported profile using CapabilityStatement.rest.resource.supportedProfile.

Example: CapabilityStatement resource for a server supporting the AU PS Patient profile as a system-wide profile that is applied across all instances of the Patient resource:

    ```
    {
      "resourceType": "CapabilityStatement",
      ...
      "rest": [
        {
          "mode": "server",
        ...
            "resource": [
              ...
              {
                "type": "Patient",
                "profile": [
                  "http://hl7.org/fhir/ps/StructureDefinition/au-ps-patient"
                ],
                ...
              }
            ]
        }
      ]
    }
    ```

Example: CapabilityStatement resource for a server supporting the AU PS Patient profile as a profile for supported use cases provided by the server:

    ```
    {
      "resourceType": "CapabilityStatement",
      ...
      "rest": [
        {
          "mode": "server",
        ...
            "resource": [
              ...
              {
                "type": "Patient",
                "supportedProfile": [
                  "http://hl7.org.au/fhir/ps/StructureDefinition/au-ps-patient"
                ],
                ...
              }
            ]
        }
      ]
    }
    ```
