Resource Profile: LabSpecimenDefinition Profile

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/order-catalog/StructureDefinition/LabSpecimenDefinition Version: current
Draft as of 2023-07-08 Computable Name: LabSpecimenDefinition

The LabSpecimenDefinition profile constrains the SpecimenDefinition resource to represent definitions of IVD specimens attached to laboratory procedures described in catalogs of laboratory services using these procedures and specimens.

This profile only sets MustSupport on the minimal data of a SpecimenDefinition used in a laboratory compendium.
