        descriptionThe practitioner(s) referenced in US Core profiles.The US Core Practitioner Profile inherits from the FHIR [Practitioner](https://hl7.org/fhir/R4/practitioner.html) resource; refer to it for scope and usage definitions. This profile sets minimum expectations for the Practitioner resource to record, search, and fetch basic demographics and administrative information about an individual practitioner. It specifies which core elements, extensions, vocabularies, and value sets **SHALL** be present and constrains how the elements are used. Providing the floor for standards development for specific use cases promotes interoperability and adoption.
