Resource Profile: Cancer Stage Group Profile

Defining URL:http://hl7.org/fhir/us/mcode/StructureDefinition/mcode-cancer-stage-group
Version:2.0.0
Name:CancerStageGroup
Title:Cancer Stage Group Profile
Status:Active as of 1/18/22 3:17 AM
Definition:

The extent of the cancer in the body, according to a given cancer staging classification system, based on evidence such as physical examination, imaging, and/or biopsy or based on pathologic analysis of a specimen.

Conformance

Observation resources associated with an in-scope patient with Observation.code set to LOINC 21908-9, 21902-2, or 21914-7 MUST conform to this profile. Beyond this requirement, a producer of resources SHOULD ensure that any resource instance associated with an mCODE patient that would reasonably be expected to conform to this profile SHOULD be published in this form.
