Topic: Capture Patient Details
Mounika (Sep 10 2019 at 10:22):
Hi all,
Suppose we have 100 patients. we want to sort out these patients based on Observation, New admission, Length of stay, Anticipated Discharge categories. Usually we can capture Patient details at the time of Hospitalization encounter happends, But it will be a long process. So we are trying to capture the above details using as extensions in Patient resource or using List.entry.item in List resource. Can anyone suggest me the solution.

The Patient resource spans numerous encounters, so putting the elements there would likely give you problems.

@Lloyd McKenzie Can we keep this information in List resource along with Patient reference or any other better way to achieve filter Patients.

Typically you'd just query as the results would change hour-to-hour. If you wanted a frozen snapshot, then List is a possibility.
