Comment:
Suggest the approach of creating a resource to capture occupational data is fundamentally misguided. If we take this approach and create a new resource for each information domain, FHIR will end up with thousands of resources. This resource combines many independent observations into one structure. The observations should be independent for several reasons (1) it allow retrieval via an observation code, and (2) it is more extensible when additional data is required. What should happen to bring related observations together is to create a panel or document that defines a core set of occupation-related observations. There can be more than one panel that emphasize different aspects of occupational data for different purposes, combining the various observations in different ways.
Summary:
Shouldn't have resource for OccupationalData
