FHIR-XDS-terminology
This page is a repository for terminology issues. Many XDS developers will be confused by FHIR's use of terminology. Between XDS and FHIR there is overlapping terminology but the terms have different meanings. In other cases a newer technology/standard is used instead of the ones chosen for XDS and we describe how the choices relate.
DocumentManifest
The FHIR equivalent to SubmissionSet.
DocumentReference
The FHIR equivalent to DocumentEntry.
Resource
The fundamental building block in FHIR is the resource. Two in particular are of interest to XDS, DocumentReference and DocumentManifest. DocumentReference maps to DocumentEntry and DocumentManifest maps to SubmissionSet. There is no FHIR equivalent to Folder.
