  <description value="This operation is used to request the removal of all current and historical versions
   for all resources in a patient compartment or from a Group of patient compartments.
    The return is an OperationOutcome with results and/or details about execution.

Following are some common `issue-type` values:
- `success` the request has been completed to the server's satisfaction - the patient
   and associated resources are no longer accessible
- `incomplete` the request is partially complete, but additional processing will
   continue (e.g., the server is continuing to clean out resources)

When supported, it is recommended (though not required) to support an [Asynchronous
   Request Pattern](async.html).

Note that the deletion of resources typically involves many policy decisions. 
   Implementers are expected to use this operation in conjunction with their policies
   for such a request - e.g., soft vs. hard delete, audibility/traceability, evaluation
   of referential integrity, etc.."/>
