  <description
               value="Providers use this [operation](http://hl7.org/fhir/operations.html) to submit *solicited* and *unsolicited* attachments or additional information for claims or prior authorization. The $submit-attachment operation accepts the clinical/administrative attachments and the information required to associate them with the claim or prior authorization and returns an HTTP response. For *unsolicited* attachments, the Provider invokes this operation *before, concurrently, or after*  the claim or pre-authorization transaction. For *solicited* attachments, the Provider invokes it when responding to a Payer request for attachments or additional information. Any HTTP endpoint can use $submit-attachment, not just FHIR RESTful server endpoints. Implementers of CDex's *Unsolicited* Attachments **SHOULD** support the [Endpoint Discovery Strategy](https://hl7.org/fhir/us/davinci-hrex/2024Sep/endpoint-discovery.html) defined in the Da Vinci HRex specification to allow discovery of the endpoint for this operation. For *Solicited Attachments*, the $submit-attachment endpoint is supplied in the [CDex Task Attachment Request Profile](http://hl7.org/fhir/us/davinci-cdex/StructureDefinition/cdex-task-attachment-request)

The input parameters are:
1. One or more attachments as FHIR Resources
    - Optionally, one or more unique line item numbers associated with the attachment
    - Optionally, the attachment code used to request the information
1. Data elements for the association to the claim/prior authorization
    - A unique identifier that ties the attachment(s) back to the claim or prior authorization. (referred to as the &quot;re-association tracking control numbers&quot;)
    - What are the attachments for:
      - Claims
      - Prior Authorizations
    - Optionally, a unique payer identifier
    - A unique organization/location identifier (e.g., [Type 2 NPI](https://www.cms.gov/Outreach-and-Education/Medicare-Learning-Network-MLN/MLNProducts/downloads/NPI-What-You-Need-To-Know.pdf)) or unique provider identifier (e.g., [Type 1 NPI](https://www.cms.gov/Outreach-and-Education/Medicare-Learning-Network-MLN/MLNProducts/downloads/NPI-What-You-Need-To-Know.pdf))
    - A unique Patient member identifier
    - A Date of Service
    - A Flag indicating whether the operation is the last attachment submission for the claim or prior authorization.

There are no output parameters."/>

The following rules apply when using `$submit-attachment`:
* The operation's endpoint **SHALL** only accept `POST` transactions - any other HTTP method **SHALL** result in an HTTP error.
* A ProviderId parameter, OrganizationId parameter, or both **SHALL** be present.
* The ServiceDate parameter **SHALL** be present and precise to the day if the attachment is for a claim.  It is optional if the attachment is for prior authorization.
* The `Attachment.LineItem` and `Attachment.Code` parameters are associated with the attachments in `Attachment.Content`.   If `Attachment.LineItem` is absent, the attachment is associated with the entire claim or prior authorization.
* For the `Attachment.Content` parameter, Servers **SHALL** support [DocumentReference](http://hl7.org/fhir/documentreference.html) resource type and **SHOULD** support other types.  If Servers support requesting attachments with [Questionnaire](http://hl7.org/fhir/questionnaire.html), then the [SDC Questionnaire Response Profile](http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/sdc/StructureDefinition/sdc-questionnaireresponse) **SHALL** be supported and the [SDC Adaptive Questionnaire Response Profile](http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/sdc/StructureDefinition/sdc-questionnaireresponse-adapt) **SHOULD** be supported.
  * The DocumentReference resources can represent the referenced content using either an address where the document can be retrieved using `DocumentReference.attachment.url` or the content as inline base64 encoded data using `DocumentReference.attachment.data`.  The server system is not required to support both an address and inline base64 encoded data, but **SHALL** support at least one of these elements.
  * These capabilities **SHOULD** be discoverable and documented by the server (for example, in the CapabilityStatement for FHIR Servers).
* When the `Final` parameter is omitted, the default meaning is Final=&quot;true&quot; - the operation is the last attachment submission (solicited or unsolicited) for the claim or prior authorization.
* When processing the operation, a server may return one of several status codes:
  * **200 OK**: Indicates that the server has accepted the clinical attachments.
    * If the attachments can not be associated with an *existing* claim or member, the server **SHOULD** return an [OperationOutcome](http://hl7.org/fhir/operationoutcome.html) to inform the Data Source that they are being held for a subsequent association with a future claim or prior authorization.
  * **4xx**: Indicates some error in the submission. The client **SHOULD** interpret a 4xx response to indicate that there is no point in resubmitting the unaltered operation,
  * **5xx**: Indicates some system error. The client **SHOULD** interpret a 5xx response to indicate an unexpected error occurred on the part of the server, with the implication that it may be appropriate to resubmit the original operation.
  *  The server **SHOULD** return an [OperationOutcome](http://hl7.org/fhir/operationoutcome.html) with additional error information if the response code is 400 or greater. For example, if the payer does not know the claim or prior authorization, the OperationOutcome can alert the submitter to check whether they sent it to the wrong payer.
