It’s a common thing for implementers to want to do with FHIR: connect to a FHIR server, and make a local copy of the information provided by the server, and then check back occasionally with the server for updates – that is, new resources, or changes to existing resources. (In “I never took X”).

The IPS is a Document, and there is a definition for this document using CDA and using FHIR. The FHIR Document is the one most are interested in. But FHIR is the hot new standard, so everyone wants to use it. CDA and FHIR Documents don't come with a form of integrity check. So, changing them along the way is easy.

Before we start thinking of the specifics of coding in lab tests, a quick review of coded data in FHIR in general is probably a good idea. This is a common pattern in the FHIR core spec.

FHIR defines a Questionnaire resource that specifies a set of questions for a user, along with a QuestionnaireResponse resource to capture their response. Once the answers are populated, they are presented to the user who can change them if necessary. A variable has a name, and a value which is a list of resources or FHIR types.
