Referrals and orders: How to ask for stuff in FHIR
summary
Distinguishes authorization (request) vs recorded result (event) and shows concrete options: post a ServiceRequest/MedicationRequest and assign a performer, use a Task resource to mediate fulfillment and carry inputs/outputs and business status, or run a broker in a placer/filler/intermediary architecture. Explains using Meta tags (the meta tag actionable pattern) to avoid double fills, when messaging or operations fit, and replaces vague instantiates with five instantiates extensions for precise provenance.
