FHIR Location

Base Path: /fhir/4.0/Location

Version: 2.0.0

The FHIR Location API allows you to look up details about the FHIR 4.0 Locations, Locations can be incidental locations (a place which is used for healthcare without prior designation or authorization) and dedicated, formally appointed locations. Locations may be private, public, mobile or fixed and scale from small freezers to full hospital buildings or parking garages.

The endpoint provides the ability to:

  • Retrieve all Location resources that match a search criteria.
  • Retrieve a specific Location resource based on its FHIR ID.
  • Retrieve the history of a Location resource based on its FHIR ID.
  • Retrieve a specific version of a Location resource based on its FHIR ID and Version ID.
  • Retrieve Location results from third-party sources.

The Location API aggregates data from multiple sources, to learn about working with aggregated APIs refer to the Working with Aggregation guide in the Knowledge Hub.

This API is based on the R4 release of the FHIR standard, for more information on this API refer to the official FHIR documentation.
