identifier

description

In most situations, PKB will assign a UUID to each data point stored in the data base, and is known as the “Public ID”.

Callers will often not need to know or use this value, as interactions are generally focused on business identifiers (e.g. the patient’s NHS number).

When the PKB-assigned UUID is required to be passed as the value of an identifier, the identifier system will be set to one of the supported uniqueId values given below.

uniqueId

  • uniqueId[0]

    • type = uri

    • value = “urn:uuid:cd97da65-0aa4-43a6-b695-cfd0c6f3267d”

    • preferred = false

  • uniqueId[1]

    • type = uri

    • value = “http://fhir.patientsknowbest.com/id/public-id”

    • preferred = true
