description	This profile sets minimum expectations for the Specimen resource to record, search, and fetch "substances being sampled or tested. (e.g., nasopharyngeal swab, whole blood, serum, urine, wound swab)" associated with a patient to promote interoperability and adoption through common implementation. It 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.	Profile of Specimen for decision support/quality metrics. Defines the core set of elements and extensions for quality rule and measure authors.	Values Differ
