Document-based Referral Request
Summary
Document-based Referral Request (DRR) supports referral requests that are transferred by document sharing (e.g., XDS, XDR, XDM).
Benefits
DRR provides a mechanism for creating and transfering referral requests.
Details
DRR can be used when both the referring and performing providers are members of the same XDS Affinity Domain, or when they are able to exchange documents by means of XDM.

- Other supporting clinical documents, e.g., lab results, images, patient care records. (optional, not specified by this profile)
