  <description value="This operation is used to return all the references to documents related to a patient.
   

 The operation requires a patient id and takes the optional input parameters: 
  - start date
  - end date
  - document type 

  - on demand 

  - profile 

 and returns a [Bundle](bundle.html) of type &quot;searchset&quot; containing [DocumentRefere
  nce](documentreference.html) resources for the patient. If the server has or can
   create documents that are related to the patient, and that are available for the
   given user, the server returns the DocumentReference resources needed to support
   the records.  The principle intended use for this operation is to provide a provider
   or patient with access to their available document information. 

 This operation is *different* from a search by patient and type and date 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 most current summary 

 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."/>
