Report Priority

AdvaPACS supports a custom FHIR extension for setting a study's reporting priority. Reporting priorities are independent of the order priority contained within the FHIR ServiceRequest message. Instead, they correspond to the priorities configured in the Reporting Worklist, allowing studies to be categorised according to local reporting workflows and SLA requirements.

Before sending Reporting Priority values via FHIR, ensure that the corresponding Reporting Priorities have been configured. For information on creating and managing Reporting Priorities, refer to the Configure Reporting Priorities guide.

Supported Resources

The Reporting Priority extension is supported on the following FHIR resource:

Example

The following example sets the reporting priority of a ServiceRequest to STAT:

"extension": [
      {
        "url": "http://advapacs.com/fhir/reporting-priority",
        "valueCodeableConcept": {
          "coding": [
            {
              "system": "http://advapacs.com/fhir/reporting-priority",
              "code": "STAT",
              "display": "Stat Reporting"
            }
          ]
        }
      }

note

The Reporting Priority extension controls the priority used for reporting in AdvaPACS. It is separate from the clinical or scheduling priority of the ServiceRequest.
