## Union of http://hl7.org/fhir/us/qicore/StructureDefinition/qicore-communication and http://hl7.org/fhir/us/qicore/StructureDefinition/qicore-communication

This is the set of resources that conform to either of the profiles QICore Communication (http://hl7.org/fhir/us/qicore/StructureDefinition/qicore-communication) and QICore Communication (http://hl7.org/fhir/us/qicore/StructureDefinition/qicore-communication). E.g. what you have to deal with if you get resources conforming to one of them
