Resource Profile: Decedent

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/vrdr/StructureDefinition/vrdr-decedent Version: 3.0.0
Active as of 2024-10-15 Computable Name: Decedent

Decedent (PatientVitalRecords)

The Decedent profile contains basic information about the decedent, including data that are essential to the death record.

Note: The Decedent profile is based on the US Core Patient Profile which requires gender. A value of 'unknown' will satisfy this requirement. The death record submission use case uses NCHS's definition of sex at time of death which is different than gender. Complete death record submissions may fail FHIR validation due to lack of a value for gender.
