  • Practice (required) — The identifier or name of the practice to query encounters in.
  • EHR (required) — The EHR system to query, selectable from options such as Athena, Cerner, Epic, etc.
  • Request Options — Optional settings including batching parameters, SSL certificate handling, HTTP proxy, and request timeout to control request execution.

Output shape

The operation issues a GET request to an API endpoint determined by the chosen EHR system and includes MRN, practice, and EHR as query parameters. Request options may affect network behavior but not the data structure. The structure of the returned data depends on the API responded content and is expected to be in JSON format.
