Topic: ReasonReference in Encounter resource R4

In R4 we have a FHIR resource Encounter with an element .reasonReference. This has a reference to:

  • Condition
  • Procedure
  • Observation
  • ImmunizationRecommendation

Why is it not possible to reference a DiagnosticReport resource?

I think because no one's identified a use-case. But that does sound like a reasonable thing to support. Can you submit a change request @Ashwin Djorai ?
