Patient Create

[Rich Carr]

Overall I don't understand why there is such a gap between a lot of examples and reality.  I don't understand this comment:

Note: The examples provided here are non-normative and replaying them in the public sandbox is not guaranteed to yield the results shown on the site.

Why can't the examples work?  I tried the create patient and got an error, so I reduced it to only the things required, and still get an error.

Hello,

Can you please use the closed end point for creating patient by providing an authorization token.
Closed endpoint url : https://fhir-ehr-code.cerner.com/r4/ec2458f2-1e24-41c8-b71b-0e701af7583d/Patient I was able to create patient with the above body.
Create workflow will not work with open endpoint.
If you want to include more fields, you can check the create workflow working example here: https://fhir.cerner.com/millennium/r4/base/individuals/patient/#create

Thank You,
Sukesh Konjeti(Oracle Cerner).

ok, so now I feel like an idiot :)   Thanks for being so observant that you noticed what I had done! Also works for me (of course).

Thanks,
Rich

One more question - I added this patient with only the small body you see here, when I went back in on a GET for the ID that was returned, it appears that the system added:

MRN Identifer

Millenium Person Identifier

Gender

I don't see that documented, but it makes sense to me that it did that.  Did I miss that in the doco somewhere?

Thanks again,

Rich

I have a thread open about 401 when creating observations and I see this thread is also about creating (patients) and that at least 2 people have gotten it to work.  With this body and my bearer token I still get 401.  So I am starting to think there is some limitation to my token.
