This abstract Patient profile includes common extensions and slicing used across vital records.

This Practitioner profile represents a practitioner who is involved in vital records (births, fetal death, death, etc.) as a certifier or an attendant. This profile is based on the US Core Practitioner and adds a further constraint to capture the title of the practitioner.

The RelatedPerson profile contains constraints common to the Mother and Father profiles. Serves as resource profile for RelatedPersonMother and RelatedPersonFather. This profile is designed to supplant the similar profile in VRDR

The biological (natural) father of the newborn or fetus.

The father of the report subject. Different individuals may play different roles as the father (e.g., biological father, adoptive father, etc.). This profile is designed to supplant the similar profile in VRDR

The mother of the report subject. Different individuals may play different roles as the mother (e.g., biological mother, adoptive mother, etc.). This profile is designed to supplant the similar profile in VRDR

Coded (from NCHS) Race and Ethnicity (Observation). This is information that is coded by NCHS and sent back to jurisdictions.

Extension to hold a codeable concept from one of several valuesets.

The fetal death status of the patient.

The registered place of birth for the related person. A system may use the address.text if it doesn’t store the birthPlace address in discrete elements.

The deceased indicator for a RelatedPerson. Deceased date/time is preferred.

This Extension profile represents the reported age of the parent (either the gestational mother or the natural father - as defined by NCHS) at the delivery time of the newborn or fetus.
