The purpose of this profile is to provide a core representation of a location for the electronic exchange of health information between individuals, healthcare providers, and the My Health Record system infrastructure in Australia.

This profile identifies the additional constraints, extensions, and value sets that build on and extend Location that are supported.

A Location resource is used within the context of a referencing resource.

This profile is designed to set a core Location standard for:

  • Recording or updating a location referenced by another resource
  • Reading locations referenced by another resource

Profile specific guidance
