Service Request Location
A physical place like a clinic, bed, ward, unit or a virtual space where the service should occur or be provided.
For Transfer of Care, represents a snapshot at time of transfer (critical for audit) - the origin or destination or physical handoff point involved in a transfer-of-care service request.
Examples: A diagnostic imaging request must specify which imaging center is requested. A physiotherapy referral might indicate the outpatient clinic location, A home-care request specifies the patient’s home.
Note: This location may differ from the location specified in Health Care Service. In that case, this location will take precedence as the one for the given service request, as it provides lower granularity.
