Client

A client is a healthcare system object that requests information and processing from an external service. This is typically an EHR system, but we may also support other health objects in the future such as a CPOE (Computerized Physician Order Entry).

We can mark a client by using the decorator @hc.ehr. You must declare a particular workflow for the EHR client, which informs the sandbox how your data will be formatted. You can find more information on the Use Cases documentation page.

Data returned from the client should be wrapped in a Pydantic model depending on use case, e.g. CdsFhirData.

You can optionally specify the number of requests to generate with the num parameter.
