The table below details various common business activities which occur in the financial realm, and the focal resources which may be exchanged, along with supporting resources, to accomplish the business activities. Whether or not the resources specified are actually needed requires consideration of the business itself and the exchange methodology and transport being used.
For example, if a definitive 'Request' does not need to be documented and communicating parties are using REST then a GET may be used in place of a CREATE of the request resource. Alternately, if FHIR Operations are being used then the specified focal resource may not be required or may be employed as one of the Operation parameters.
Note: The SupportingDocumentation resource has been deprecated in favour of DocumentManifest for the excahnge of attachments and supporting materials, PDF, Images, XRays, etc.
