Summary

This document describes the `FhirServiceCollection interface` for Azure environments. It outlines a structure used to access multiple FHIR services through a single collection.

Details

This page is a reference detailing the `FhirServiceCollection interface`, found within the `@azure/arm-healthcareapis` package. This interface provides a definition for managing and accessing various groups of FHIR-related services offered on Azure. The structure indicates that this collection contains links to multiple FHIR services (`next Link`) and an array of specific service objects (`value: FhirService[]`). Crucially, the `FhirServiceCollection` serves as a foundational mechanism allowing developers to programmatically reference and manage diverse functional groups available through Azure's healthcare APIs. Such interfaces are vital for ensuring interoperability in medical information systems. By providing a unified way to handle multiple services (e.g., retrieving patient data, checking allergy information) based on FHIR standards, it simplifies development. Developers no longer need to memorize individual API endpoints, enabling the construction of more efficient and comprehensive healthcare applications.
