Use cases

Overview

The Shared Digital Health Record (SDHR) API allows collection of a patient's clinical information from ministry, primary and secondary care systems, allowing information to be surfaced back to authorised health sector API consumers.

The information included in the Shared Digital Health Record:

• AllergyIntolerance
• Condition
• Encounter

• Observation

• Immunization

Data provision

When a patient's record is created or updated in a system of record for an encounter, allergy/intolerance, condition, or observation, FHIR resources representing this information should be POSTed or PUT to the API.

This should be performed synchronously as soon as the change is made to the record.
