Which resource lifecycle applies to the sequence: draft | active | on-hold | revoked | completed?

• A. Clinical Workflow Process Life Cycle
• B. Request/ Order Life Cycle
• C. Data Lifecycle
• D. Event Lifecycle

Answer: (B)

The sequence describes how a clinical request or order progresses through its workflow. In FHIR, the Order (and related resources like MedicationRequest) is created in draft, then becomes active when the action is underway, can be put on hold if paused, may be revoked or cancelled, and finally is completed when the action is fulfilled. This progression—draft → active → on-hold → revoked → completed—maps directly to the lifecycle of a Request/ Order, making it the best fit.

Other lifecycles refer to broader processes (clinical workflow in general, data handling, or event-driven phases) and don’t specifically capture the lifecycle of a clinical request or order.
