## Overview

The Encounter resource provides admissions or visits during which health care services were provided to a patient. An encounter has a class to distinguish between different health care settings such as inpatient, outpatient, emergency, etc. A patient may have one medical record number with multiple encounter numbers per facility or organization. There is substantial variance between organizations in the definition of an encounter and what events are aggregated together to constitute an encounter.

### Encounter Combines Example

Cerner Millennium supports the ability to logically merge an encounter record into another encounter record when both records are describing the same ecounter. This is known
as an "encounter combine". If necessary, this merging can later be undone by performing an "encounter uncombine". When the requested encounter record has been combined into another
record, an inactive Encounter entry will be returned which has a reference to the current Encounter entry in the partOf field. Entries for combined encounters will only be returned when retrieving
the entries directly by id. They will not be returned when searching with other parameters.

The ability to perform encounter combine or uncombine operations is not available through the Cerner Ignite platform.
