How to get the code value of a healthcareService resource?

#1

I have a list of healthcare services from which i want to retrieve the ones with a specific code in type.
If i want to get a healthcareservice with type code value 117, what would be the correct query?
Ex:

            "type": [
                {
                    "coding": [
                        {
                            "system": "http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/service-type",
                            "code": "117"
                        }
                    ]
                }
            ]

Thanks! May I know why just specifying ‘type’ rather than ‘service-type’ didn’t work? Do we have to add the same prefix to compare other property values as well?

The list of search parameters is at the bottom of the resource page (HealthcareService - FHIR v4.5.0). I’m not totally sure why the work group opted to use “service-type” rather than “type” as the name of their parameter. Perhaps because there’s a standard parameter called _type and they figured that type might be confusing.

The list of search parameters is distinct from the list of elements. Some search parameters can search multiple elements, some elements will have multiple search parameters (with distinct names) and some elements aren’t searchable (using ‘standard’ search parameters) at all.

Yeah, makes sense. Thank you!
