Reference | Description
--- | ---
Example system URI | An inherited example system (e.g. `http://www.acme.com/identifiers/patient`) erroneously infers patient context. Implementers must use their own namespace URIs. The affected identifier profile is Endpoint (hcpd-EPI) - this profile includes the erroneous example `system` in their documentation.
Dependency on current version of Australian Provider Directory IG (FHIR IG) | The HCPD FHIR IG utilises Australian Service Interfaces and Australian Endpoint Payload Types from the Australian Provider Directory FHIR IG. However, including a dependency on v2.0.1 of the HL7 AU PD FHIR IG results in a publisher error due to a FHIR version mismatch: the AU PD IG is built on FHIR version 4.0.0 while HCPD requires version 4.0.1.
