Resource Profile: US Public Health Patient

This Patient profile represents a US Public Health Patient.

This proile is present in the IG to synchronize with common Patient profile being developed by public health profiles library IG. This profile is being used by the Cancer Patient profile. Implementers of the IG are expected to implement only the Cancer Patient profile. It is based on the US Core Patient profile with further restrictions to allow masking of some data elements and the addition of the patient-genderIdentity extension.

For ONC’s USCDI requirements, it adds Must Support constraints to the following:

• contact detail (e.g. a telephone number or an email address)
• a communication language
• a race
• an ethnicity
• a birth sex

Usage:

• Derived from this Resource Profile: Central Cancer Registry Reporting Cancer Patient
• Examples for this Resource Profile: Patient/example
