Structures

This structure refers to these other structures:

• US Core Patient Profile (http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-patient)
• US Core RelatedPerson Profile (http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-relatedperson)
• US Core Organization Profile (http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-organization)

Slices

This structure defines the following Slices:

• The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Coverage.identifier
• The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Coverage.class
