- Field Detail
  - identifier
```
protected List<Identifier> identifier
```
    Identifier(s) by which this encounter is known.
  - status
```
protected Enumeration<Encounter.EncounterStatus> status
```
    planned | arrived | triaged | in-progress | onleave | finished | cancelled +.
  - statusHistory
```
protected List<Encounter.StatusHistoryComponent> statusHistory
```
    The status history permits the encounter resource to contain the status history without needing to read through the historical versions of the resource, or even have the server store them.
  - class_
```
protected Coding class_
```
    inpatient | outpatient | ambulatory | emergency +.
  - classHistory
```
protected List<Encounter.ClassHistoryComponent> classHistory
```
    The class history permits the tracking of the encounters transitions without needing to go through the resource history. This would be used for a case where an admission starts of as an emergency encounter, then transisions into an inpatient scenario. Doing this and not restarting a new encounter ensures that any lab/diagnostic results can more easily follow the patient and not require re-processing and not get lost or cancelled during a kindof discharge from emergency to inpatient.
  - type
```
protected List<CodeableConcept> type
```
    Specific type of encounter (e.g. e-mail consultation, surgical day-care, skilled nursing, rehabilitation).
