Plan-Net HealthcareService (7.54.1)

The HealthcareService resource profile describes services offered by an organization and/or practitioner at a specific location. The profile may be used to encompass a variety of services covering the entire healthcare spectrum. These services can include: promotion, prevention, diagnostics, pharmacy, hospital and ambulatory care, home care, long-term care, and other health-related and community services.

The HealthcareService structure is derived from the FHIR R4 HealthcareService resource. The HealthcareService resource is used to describe a single healthcare service or category of services that are provided by an organization at a location.

This structure refers to the following:

  • active
  • address
  • address-city
  • address-country
  • address-postalcode
  • address-state
  • address-use
  • binary-access-read

Anticipated Queries

Use Postman to test Opala's Provider Directory API by querying the API and returning the results. The Opala Collection is a group of API requests that are already saved in the Postman app and arranged in folders. Within each folder are pre-defined requests that you can run as-is or modify to fit your own needs.

See the Setting Up Postman topic in this documentation set for information on how to import the Opala Collection into your local copy of Postman.

You can view Opala's Capability Statement at https://api.opalahealth.io:45000/pdir/premera/v1/fhir/r4/metadata for a description of the Provider Directory API to assist you in making your queries.
