Note that for both humans and particularly animals, there are other legitimate possibilities than male and female, though the vast majority of systems and contexts only support male and female. Systems providing decision support or enforcing business rules should ideally do this on the basis of Observations dealing with the specific sex or gender aspect of interest (anatomical, chromosomal, social, etc.) However, because these observations are infrequently recorded, defaulting to the administrative gender is common practice. Where such defaulting occurs, rule enforcement should allow for the variation between administrative and biological, chromosomal and other gender aspects. For example, an alert about a hysterectomy on a male should be handled as a warning or overridable error, not a 'hard' error. See the Patient Gender and Sex section for additional information about communicating patient gender and sex. Special remarks for KMEHR users: Please note gender in KMEHR is typically expressed using CD-SEX.

        .descriptionBelgian federal profile for a patient. Initially based on the functional description of the NIHDI. Special remarks for KMEHR users: following elements in KMEHR are not available in this FHIR resource. If needed, an extension can be defined in a future iteration of these specifications: the 'deathlocation' (location is not available but the death of the patient is expressed by either date or Boolean cfr. infra.), the 'insurancystatus' (covered in a seperate FHIR resource: Coverage), 'insurancymembership' (covered in a seperate FHIR resource: Coverage) and 'profession' (covered in a possible future FHIR resource: OccupationalData.)
