CancerPatient

Cancer Patient Profile

activemCODE (Oncology)4.0.0resource3 key elements

A patient who has been diagnosed with or is receiving medical treatment for a malignant growth or tumor. The only difference between CancerPatient and US Core Patient is that Patient.deceased is a must-support element in mCODE. Must-support is an instruction to implementers of FHIR clients and servers, rather than a constraint on data structure. Any Patient resource complying with US Core Patient Profile will also comply with CancerPatient.
