Resource Profile: MessageHeader

Official URL: https://gematik.de/fhir/atf/StructureDefinition/atf-message-header Version: 1.4.0
Active as of 2025-07-29 Computable Name: MessageHeaderAppTransportFramework

MessageHeader des MessageBundles

Motivation

In jeder Übertragung gibt es genau einen MessageHeader. Dieser hält vier wesentliche Informationen

  • Adresse des Absenders
  • Adresse des Empfängers
  • .eventCode zur Angabe des Anwendungsfalls
  • Unter .focus angegebene Ressourcen, die als Startpunkt der Auswertung angesehen werden können

Diese Informationen können in dem vorliegenden Profil angegeben werden.

Hinweis: MessageHeader.destination.receiver ist bewusst offen spezifiziert worden. Je genauer der Empfänger in der Nachricht angegeben werden kann, desto besser. Daher sollte z.B. unter MessageHeader.destination.receiver.identifier nach Möglichkeit die Telematik-ID des Empfängers angegeben werden. Dies ermöglicht eine genauere Zustellung im empfangenden System.
