Changelog

v0.0.71

Additions

• Added a new referral.singhealth-patient-create-reminder-sent value to the timeline event type field (timelineEvents[].type) returned by GET /api/v1/referrals/:referralId.

v0.0.70

Additions

• Added new submittedAt field to referral responses (GET /api/v1/institutions/:institutionIdType/:institutionId/referrals, GET /api/v1/referrals/:referralId, DELETE /api/v1/referrals/:referralId, POST /api/v1/referrals/:referralId/cancel, POST /api/v1/referrals/:referralId/back-to-draft).

Recommendations

• Use the new submittedAt field instead of createdAt when displaying or sorting by the submission time of a referral, since createdAt reflects when the draft was first created rather than when it was submitted.

v0.0.69

Documentation Changes

• Removed unimplemented patient.isHsgEnrolled field from referral responses (GET /api/v1/institutions/:institutionIdType/:institutionId/referrals, GET /api/v1/referrals/:referralId, DELETE /api/v1/referrals/:referralId, POST /api/v1/referrals/:referralId/cancel, POST /api/v1/referrals/:referralId/back-to-draft).
• Updated description of the offering.description field in referral responses (GET /api/v1/institutions/:institutionIdType/:institutionId/referrals, GET /api/v1/referrals/:referralId, DELETE /api/v1/referrals/:referralId, POST /api/v1/referrals/:referralId/cancel, POST /api/v1/referrals/:referralId/back-to-draft).

v0.0.68

Additions

• Added new Manual enum value to the senderSystem field in referral responses (GET /api/v1/institutions/:institutionIdType/:institutionId/referrals, GET /api/v1/referrals/:referralId, DELETE /api/v1/referrals/:referralId, POST /api/v1/referrals/:referralId/cancel, POST /api/v1/referrals/:referralId/back-to-draft).
• Added new Manual enum value to the timelineEvents[].system field in GET /api/v1/referrals/:referralId response.

v0.0.67

Additions

• Added new nehrForm enum value to the additionalField query parameter on GET /api/v1/referrals/:referralId. When requested, the response includes:
  • nehrForm — the referral form rendered as a self-contained HTML document, suitable for forwarding to NEHR.
  • nehrFormType — a human-readable description of the NEHR form type(s), with multiple templates joined by |.

Documentation Changes

• Added a new NEHR Integration page in the Concepts section, explaining how to map RefX fields (offering.nehrCode, offering.specialty, nehrForm, nehrFormType) into a NEHR putComposition request.

Recommendations

• For NEHR integrations, call GET /api/v1/referrals/:referralId?additionalField=nehrForm immediately before submitting to NEHR, and forward the returned nehrForm HTML as-is — do not modify, reflow, or strip styles, or it may not render correctly in NEHR.
• Read the new NEHR Integration concept page for the full mapping between RefX fields and NEHR putComposition payload locations.

Documentation Changes

• Removed unnecesssary endpoints from API documentation.
• Added pattern for dob field in POST /api/v1/links/upsert request body to indicate ISO 8601 format.
• Updated Referral Lifecycle & Statuses page in the Concepts section:
  • New coreStatus field.

Recommendations

• Include nationality information when calling POST /api/v1/links/upsert using the provided enum values to prefill the referral form and reduce manual entry for the user.
• Use the isCancellable field in the GET /api/v1/referrals/:referralId response to determine whether to show a cancel option in the UI.
• Use the coreStatus field in the GET /api/v1/referrals/:referralId response instead of the status field to determine the status to display to the user. The status field contains more granular information that may not be relevant for display purposes.
• Do not programmatically handle the type field in the timelineEvents array in the GET /api/v1/referrals/:referralId response as there may be new event types added in the future. Instead, use the description field to display meaningful information to users without needing to update your system for new event types.
• Use the new sender-action-required enum value for the status query parameter in the GET /api/v1/institutions/:institutionIdType/:institutionId/referrals endpoint to highlight referrals that require action from the user.
• Use the new label field in the links array in the GET /api/v1/referrals/:referralId response as the text on buttons in the UI that redirect users to RefX.
• Read the new and updated documentation pages for recommendations on how to successfully integrate with RefX.
