## Resource Profile: US Quality Core Coverage

Official URL: http://fhir.org/guides/onc/us-quality-core/StructureDefinition/us-quality-core-coverage | Version: 0.5.0
Active as of 2026-05-15 | Computable Name: USQualityCoreCoverage

Profile of Coverage for decision support/quality metrics. Defines the core set of elements and extensions for quality rule and measure authors.

Usage

See the patterns page for implementation and usage patterns.

    define "SDE Payer":
      [Coverage: type in "Payer"] Payer
        return {
          code: Payer.type,
          period: Payer.period
        }
