Search Parameters

Standard FHIR Search Parameters

This profile supports all standard QuestionnaireResponse search parameters:

Usage Examples

GET [base]/QuestionnaireResponse?questionnaire=Questionnaire/patient-intake
GET [base]/QuestionnaireResponse?subject=Patient/123
GET [base]/QuestionnaireResponse?status=completed
GET [base]/QuestionnaireResponse?authored=2025-07-16
GET [base]/QuestionnaireResponse?author=Practitioner/456

Implementation Notes

Form Completion Workflow

• questionnaire: Must reference the specific Questionnaire version used
• subject: Typically references a Patient resource
• authored: Should be set when the response is first created
• source: The person who provided the answers (may differ from author)

Status Progression

QuestionnaireResponse status should follow this typical flow:

• in-progress → completed (successful completion)
• in-progress → stopped (abandoned before completion)

Integration Points

• May be referenced as Task.output when the form completion task is done
• Should reference the originating ServiceRequest via basedOn when applicable

Implementation Notes

Form Submission Workflow

• QuestionnaireResponse instances should reference the specific questionnaire version used
• All responses must include a subject (typically a Patient)
• Status should progress from in-progress to completed or stopped
• Consider using based-on to link to the originating ServiceRequest

• Key Elements Table
• Differential Table
• Snapshot Table
