Certifier
Certifier is a profile of the FHIR STU3 Practitioner resource. It is used to convey identity, contact information, and qualifications of the practitioner attesting to the information contained in the death certificate. The death certifier is typically a medical examiner or coroner. In addition to certifying death of the decedent, the certifier enumerates the cause of death conditions, determines the causal pathway and other significant conditions contributing to death, and categorizes the manner of death.
