<description
value="CapabilityStatement for the Document Submission Option on the EEHRxF Document Access Provider.
This option enables the Access Provider to receive documents from external Document
Publishers via [ITI-105 Simplified Publish](https://profiles.ihe.net/ITI/MHD/ITI-105.html).
Systems implementing this option:
- SHALL also implement the base [Document Access Provider](CapabilityStatement-EEHRxF-DocumentAccessProvider.html) capabilities
- SHALL accept ITI-105 transactions from authorized Document Publishers
- SHALL make received documents available via ITI-67 and ITI-68
- SHALL validate documents against EEHRxF content profiles
This option is REQUIRED when acting as a delegated access provider for external
Document Publishers (e.g., integration engines, national infrastructure).
### Actor Grouping
Adds to base Document Access Provider:
- [MHD Document Recipient](https://profiles.ihe.net/ITI/MHD/1331_actors_and_transactions.html) - Simplified Publish Option ([CapabilityStatement](https://profiles.ihe.net/ITI/MHD/CapabilityStatement-IHE.MHD.DocumentRecipient.html))
### Transaction
| Transaction | Description | Optionality |
|-------------|-------------|-------------|
| ITI-105 Simplified Publish | Accept document publication from Document Publishers | R |
### Security
