Information about a person that is involved in a patient's health or the care for a patient, but who is not the target of healthcare, nor has a formal responsibility in the care process.
RelatedPersons typically have a personal relationship or non-healthcare-specific professional relationship to the patient. A RelatedPerson resource is primarily used for attribution of information, since RelatedPersons are often a source of information about the patient. For keeping information about people for contact purposes for a patient, use a Patient's Contact element. Some individuals may serve as both a Patient's Contact and a Related Person.
Example RelatedPersons are:
The primary distinction between a Practitioner and a RelatedPerson is based on whether:
A standard extension animalSpecies can be used to indicate the species of a service animal.
