Resource Profile: Healthy Route Screening Visit

Official URL: https://fhir.savannahghi.org/ig/healthy-route/StructureDefinition/hr-encounter Version: 0.1.0
Draft as of 2026-10-11 Computable Name: HREncounter

The single visit at which a participant is screened, measured and photographed, or one dated part of it.

Groups everything collected from one participant on one occasion, and records where it happened. The clinic a participant was seen in is a source of spectrum variation that has to survive to analysis, and it is a property of the visit rather than of the participant.
