It includes details such as the event type, source and destination of the message, timestamp, and any relevant identifiers. This resource is essential for tracking and managing the flow of information, ensuring messages are correctly routed and processed. By encapsulating the context and routing information, MessageHeader facilitates reliable and organized exchange of clinical and administrative data across different healthcare systems.
