ABUS.12 Confirm/Book an Appointment Slot

In order that the patient can be assured that the provider will see them on or around the allotted time at the selected location

As a Integrated Urgent Care Service Provider

I want to confirm/book an offered appointment slot with the provider.

Commentary

For UEC booking, appointments will be immediately booked with the following steps:

• Send an Appointment requesting that it be booked into one of the available Slots.
• Receive confirmation (including an identifier) that the Appointment has been booked. OR
• Receive an error describing why the Appointment couldn’t be booked.

GP Connect use case can be found at GP Connect book and appointment use case

Acceptance Criteria

• The provider system must accept the appointment booking even if the patient is not “registered” with this provider
• Where the booking was not successful, the provider must send an appropriate response to indicate this.
• Where the booking was not successful, the consumer must present an appropriate message to the user to indicate this.
