description | This profile represents the constraints applied to the Patient resource by the International Patient Summary (IPS) FHIR Implementation Guide and describes the minimum expectations for the Patient resource when used in the IPS composition or in one of the referred resources. | This profile sets minimum expectations for a Patient resource in the context of a patient summary in an Australian context. It is based on the [AU Core Patient](https://build.fhir.org/ig/hl7au/au-fhir-core/StructureDefinition-au-core-patient.html) profile, and applies the additional requirements from [Patient (IPS)](http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/ips/StructureDefinition/Patient-uv-ips). | Values Differ
