This profile sets minimum expectations for the Organization resource to searching for and fetching a Organization associated with a patient or provider. It identifies which core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets SHALL be present in the resource when using this profile.
The following data-elements are mandatory (i.e data MUST be present). These are presented below in a simple human-readable explanation. Profile specific guidance and examples are provided as well. The Formal Profile Definition below provides the formal summary, definitions, and terminology requirements.
Each Organization must have:
