Messaging & Communications
FHIR® supports messaging workflows through the Communication resource, allowing your system to manage message content and metadata independently of the medium (email, SMS, chat, etc.). These Communications can be structured to support various use cases, including:
-
Threaded Messages: Organize conversations into threads for better context and continuity.
-
Asynchronous Encounters: Facilitate communication that doesn't require real-time interaction.
-
Omni-Channel Messaging: Integrate multiple communication channels into a unified system.
-
Real-Time Notifications: Use WebSockets for instant updates and alerts.
