Following are the Encounter location fields are available in our system
Facility Name (Hospital Name),
Facility Code ,
Facility Location Name (One of the hospital center),
Ward

We would like to map above fields to Encounter. Location resource. We are able to map Facility Name to Encounter.Location.name but not sure about other fields

Facility Code, ?
Facility Location Name, ?
Ward ?

Any guidance and suggestion

You'll have to explain what Facility Code means. Ward and hospital center are actually separate locations. Locations exist in a hierarchy. So you could have one location for a Bed, one for a room, one for a ward, one for a floor one for a building and one for a campus. Each could have names, codes and other information and the smaller locations would have references to the larger locations they're part of.

Also: Facility (Hospital) could be an Organization rather than a Location - if it is the overall organization and not a physical place

Thank you for helping out .. This make sense to me !! We will adjust accordingly.

One more quick confirmation about following fields .. are they good candidate to get mapped to Encounter.ServiceRequest ?
Observation_request_collection_date
Observation_request_create_date
Observation_request_providerID

Any help on this really appreciated !! Thank you so much in advance.

We are working on creating the Encounter search and Expecting Location of the encounter is included. Here is the our Query Format.. Is this looks correct ?
https://ourtestserver/Encounter?patient=9df87ee4-4ade-45c5-8601-910e8ff9db99&_include=Encounter:patient&_includeEncounter:location.

Is there a public server where We can validate these types of queries?

Did you look at the servers listed at https://confluence.hl7.org/display/FHIR/Public+Test+Servers ?
Also: _include is not part of Argonaut / US Core implementation guide, so most US core servers do not support it

Thank you for Quick Reply.. Any other public profile which supports _include and _revinclude?

CARIN BlueButton is going to mandate support for _inclide and _revinclude I think

view this post on Zulip Michele Mottini (Jul 17 2020 at 18:07):

Most public test server will support them - regardless of profile

_include in CARIN BB yes, but _revinclude hasn't come up
