## Resource Profile: Healthcare Service

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/smart-scheduling-links/StructureDefinition/smart-scheduling-healthcare-service | Version: 1.0.0-ballot | Highlight text changes?
Standards status: Trial-use Active as of 2026-04-01 | Maturity Level: 2 | Computable Name: SmartSchedulingHealthcareService

The Health Service resource is used to describe a single healthcare service or category of services that are provided by an organization at a location. The location of the services could be virtual, as with telemedicine services. This profile provides a scheduling-optimized view of healthcare service offerings, enabling discovery and booking of appointments when no specific practitioner is required or specified.

Example Usage Scenarios

The following are example usage scenarios for the SMART Scheduling Links HealthcareService profile:

- Query services provided by an organization at a location

### Mandatory and Must Support Data Elements
