Topic: Searching Question

Please forgive another "dumb" question, but how would I go about a search for all Patients that have MedicationStatement resources? Would I use a whole system search and a reverse include? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Brian Postlethwaite (Jan 14 2021 at 19:45):
That would be a patient search using the _has query parameter
http://hl7.org/fhir/search.html#has
Brian Postlethwaite (Jan 14 2021 at 19:46):
Not sure how many servers support that
Joe Mundi (Jan 14 2021 at 19:47):
Thanks Brian. Does the FHIR .Net SDK have that capability, or do I build the appropriate URL and pass it to the FhirClient?
Brian Postlethwaite (Jan 14 2021 at 19:52):
It's just a regular search property, so should be able to use it.
client.search<Patient>(new [] {'_has=.....'});
I think.
Joe Mundi (Jan 14 2021 at 19:54):
I'll try it and let you know how it works with HAPI. I really appreciate you taking the time to answer. It's like drinking from a firehose, trying to learn FHIR and the SDK at the same time. haha
Brian Postlethwaite (Jan 14 2021 at 19:57):
Lol yes, I believe HAPI does support it.
Usually I try things out with a browser, or postman to verify it does what I expect, then use the FHIR client knowning that the server is going to behave nicely :wink:
Joe Mundi (Jan 14 2021 at 19:58):
that's a great tip; thank you.
