FHIR Operations

The FHIR Operations page allows authorized users to perform advanced FHIR operations. It can be found in the main menu under FHIR -> Operations.

For example, one of the available operations is $match, which searches for patients that match the provided demographics. The matching algorithm leverages Orchestrate Identity. For more information, see Understanding Patient Matching. Set the resource parameter to a FHIR Patient resource containing demographic information (such as the example below), and it will show potential patient matches, along with a confidence score for each.
