Formal URI | http://hl7.org/fhir/compartment/Encounter |
Description | The set of resources associated with a particular encounter |
Identity | There is an instance of the encounter compartment for each encounter resource, and the identity of the compartment is the same as the encounter |
Membership | The encounter compartment includes any resources where the resource has an explicitly nominated encounter, and some other resources that themselves link to resources in the encounter compartment. Note that for many resources, the exact nature of the link to encounter can be ambiguous (e.g. for a DiagnosticReport, is it the encounter when it was initiated, or when it was reported?) |

A resource is in this compartment if the nominated search parameter (or chain) refers to the compartmentdefinition-encounter resource that defines the compartment.
All resources not explicitly listed above are not defined as part of the compartment because they do not have a relevant element, or an appropriate specified search parameter. Some non-listed resources may still be relevant for certain compartment uses, such as access control - e.g. Binary.
