      .descriptionDefines constraints and extensions on the patient resource for the minimal set of data to query and retrieve patient demographic information.(Base Level) The goal of this profile is to describe a data-minimized version of Patient used to convey information about the patient for Identity Matching utilizing the $match operation. Only requires that 'some valuable data' be populated within the Patient resource and utilizes no weighting of element values.
