Hello,
Looking forward to generate cda from fhir bundle. Is there any api that can do directly. Can't see any library that implemented it.

Recommend asking under #CCDA / FHIR mapping stream

@sandeep nani - if you want to socialize, best to do that on #social. This stream is for asking questions :)

Hello friends, I want to update an HL7 CDA document to HL7 FHIR, I am reading the Composition documentation, there is a way of not passing the data by reference, but passing it directly?
<!-- Example -->
<subject>
<reference value="Patient/123456"/>
<display value="Henry Levin the 7th"/>
</subject>
<!-- I would like it to work as follows -->
<subject>
<name>
<use value="official"/>
<family value="Chalmers"/>
<given value="Peter"/>
<given value="James"/>
</name>
</subject>

hi Luis, there is no way to do exactly what you want.
You cannot just put the data inline. It has to be a reference - though you can have a small amount of data in the "display".
So the question is what to reference. You can reference a full resource, or you can reference a contained resource. The full resource can be inside the same bundle, so it is still local, but not in-line. A contained resource will be more local, because it is in the same resource. So that is conceptually the closest to it being in-line.
Contained resources are intended for when you don't have enough identifying info to make a full resource (which appears to be your case here - you have no identifying numbers in your example). They are also good for practical reasons when you don't need/want to have to carry around a bundle, or to de-reference global references. But you will have a bundle anyway in this case.

Thanks a lot Rik :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

CDA documents correspond to FHIR documents:
http://build.fhir.org/documents.html
There is also an implementation guide for CDA-on-FHIR:
http://build.fhir.org/cda-intro.html
There is rarely a good reason to reinvent the wheel...
