Use case covered

This resource is a definition resource from a FHIR workflow perspective - see Workflow, specifically Definition.

The EventDefinition provides a reusable description of an event. The resource supports describing different kinds of events, including named events, periodic events, and data-based events. For each of these, the resource also supports a formal description of the event. For example, a 'monitor-emergency-admissions' event can be a named event, but also provide a formal description of the event as monitoring for encounters that occur in emergency department locations.

This API uses FHIR R4 EventDefinition Library.
