Introduction

This document describes the technical specifications of the ZorgDomein HL7 V2.4 ORU (attachment V2) message. This message contains metadata about one or multiple attachments and the attachment files themselves. The message model describes the structure of this message, where curly brackets ‘{ }’ imply repeatable segments.

The subsequent section further describes the contents of these segments. The abbreviation ‘Elem.nr’ denotes the element number.

ZorgDomein adheres to the required fields as specified in the international HL7 V2.4 specifications.

In this document, the term ‘acting referrer’ describes the person that used ZorgDomein and actually referred the patient. The term ‘responsible referrer’ describes the person that is responsible for that referral. The two often relate to the same person.
