EHDSHumanName → HumanName
Ongoing alignment: The models are expected to continue evolving, with updates incorporated into this Implementation Guide to maintain alignment with the EHDS Implementing Acts.

### EHDSHumanName → HumanName

This page explains how conceptual elements from the EHDS logical model are expressed in the corresponding FHIR HumanName datatype used by this Implementation Guide.

Element | Relation | Datatype | Element | Notes
use | equivalent | HumanName | use | e.g. official, usual, nickname.
text | equivalent | HumanName | text | Typically a single string.
family | equivalent | HumanName | family |
