## Artifacts Summary

This page provides a list of the FHIR artifacts defined as part of this implementation guide.

### Requirements: Formal Requirements 

The following artifacts describe the specific requirements to be met by systems compliant with the implementation guide.

| | |
| :--- | :--- |
| [US Core Certifying System Requirements](Requirements-us-core-certifying-system.md) | This [Requirements](https://hl7.org/fhir/R5/requirements.html) resource lists the **additional requirements** for systems certifying for Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) Health IT Certification (g(10) certification. These requirements represent the regulatory and technical specifications that design artifacts must meet to ensure interoperability. See the [US Core Server Requirements](Requirements-us-core-server.md) for the US Core Responder (Server) requirements defined in the US Core Implementation Guide narrative sections. |

These requirements represent the regulatory, business, functional, and technical specifications that design artifacts must meet to ensure interoperability. |
| [US Core Server Requirements](Requirements-us-core-server.md) | This [Requirements](https://hl7.org/fhir/R5/requirements.html) resource lists the US Core Responder (Server) requirements defined in the US Core Implementation Guide narrative sections. These requirements represent the regulatory, business, functional, and technical specifications that design artifacts must meet to ensure interoperability.

### Behavior: Capability Statements 

The following artifacts define the specific capabilities that different types of systems are expected to have in order to comply with this implementation guide. Systems conforming to this implementation guide are expected to declare conformance to one or more of the following capability statements.

| | |
| :--- | :--- |
| [US Core Client CapabilityStatement](CapabilityStatement-us-core-client.md) | This CapabilityStatement describes the expected capabilities of the US Core Client which is responsible for creating and initiating the queries for information about an individual patient. The complete list of FHIR profiles, RESTful operations, and search parameters supported by US Core Servers are defined in the [US Core CapabilityStatement](CapabilityStatement-us-core-server.md). US Core Clients have the option of choosing from this list to access necessary data based on their local use cases and other contextual requirements. |
| [US Core Server CapabilityStatement](CapabilityStatement-us-core-server.md) | This CapabilityStatement describes the expected capabilities of the US Core Server actor which is responsible for providing responses to the queries submitted by the US Core Requestors. The complete list of FHIR profiles, RESTful operations, and search parameters supported by US Core Servers are defined. Systems implementing this capability statement should meet the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) 2015 Common Clinical Data Set (CCDS) access requirement for Patient Selection 170.315(g)(7) and Application Access - Data Category Request 170.315(g)(8) and the ONC [U.S. Core Data for Interoperability (USCDI) Version 6 July 2025](https://www.healthit.gov/isp/sites/isp/files/2025-07/USCDI-Version-6-July-2025.pdf). |

### Behavior: Operation Definitions 

These are custom operations that can be supported by and/or invoked by systems conforming to this implementation guide.

| | |
| :--- | :--- |
| [US Core Fetch DocumentReference](OperationDefinition-docref.md) | This operation is used to return all the references to documents related to a patient. It is invoked on a FHIR Server's DocumentReference endpoint (e.g., `[base]/DocumentReference/$docref`) and operates across all DocumentReference instances.The operation requires a patient id and takes the optional input parameters:* start context date
* end context date
* document type
* on-demand
* profile
and returns a **searchset** [Bundle](http://hl7.org/fhir/bundle.html) containing [DocumentReference](http://hl7.org/fhir/documentreference.html) resources for the patient. If the server has stored documents or can create documents for the patient and those documents are available for the user, the server returns the DocumentReference resources associated with documents. This operation's intended use is to provide a way for providers or patients to access their available documents. The document itself can be subsequently retrieved using the link provided in the `DocumentReference.content.attachment.url element`. The link could be a FHIR endpoint to a [Binary](http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/binary.html) Resource or some other document repository.This operation is **different** from a FHIR RESTful query on DocumentReference by patient and type and period range because:1. It is used to request a server to **generate** a document based on the specified parameters.
1. If no parameters are specified, the server SHALL return a DocumentReference to the patient's current C-CDA CCD.
1. If the server cannot **generate** a document based on the specified parameters, the operation will return an empty search bundle.
Unless the client indicates they are only interested in 'on-demand' documents using the **on-demand** parameter, the server SHOULD return DocumentReference instances for **existing** documents that meet the request parameters In this regard, this operation is **similar** to a FHIR RESTful query. |

### Behavior: Search Parameters 

These define the properties by which a RESTful server can be searched. They can also be used for sorting and including related resources.
