description | This profile defines how to represent Patients in HL7 FHIR for the purpose of this guide. | This profile sets minimum expectations for the Patient resource common to most of the use cases. When the ips-pat-1 invariant is satisfied \(Patient.name.given, Patient.name.family or Patient.name.text SHALL be present\) then this profile complies with the IPS patient profile. |
