US Core Patient Profile
-
Da Vinci has two patient profiles. On the de-identified patient, we prohibit patient name and identifier. That conflicts with the basic use-case of US Core, which is an identified patient. We don't think US Core patient should change. It seems inappropriate to create a generic de-identified patient in US Core because de-identification must always be use-case specific to ensure that needed information is present, while minimizing the risk of identification. That's not something that can be done in a generic manner.
