description	The US Core Simple Observation Profile meets the requirements of the US Core Data for Interoperability (USCDI) Assessments. This profile promotes interoperability and adoption through common implementation by setting minimum expectations for the Observation resource to record, search, and retrieve observations representing a practitioner's clinical observation or assertion about a patient's health status. These observations may or may not be associated with a formal survey, screening, or assessment tool. For example, a social history status such as education or food insecurity or an assessment of the patient's cognitive, functional, or disability status. This profile identifies which core elements, extensions, vocabularies, and value sets **SHALL** be present in the resource when using this profile. It provides the floor for standards development for specific use cases.	A profile for observations that capture a patient's average minutes per day of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity.

Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.
