      The FHIR group feels that they're still on target to meet their target of 100-150 resources. The larger artifacts are a manifestation of the fact that there are certain "large" constructs that a commonly exchanged and FHIR aligns with these existing patterns (e.g. sections in CDA/CCDA; archetypes in OpenEHR). There are a clear set of criteria used to guide when the creation of a new resource is appropriate and an approval process to help avoid resource proliferation.

      Comments
      A number of FHIR resources can be represented as Documents (compositions), but are represented as specifically designed static information structures.

      Examples are: Care Plan, Family History, Diagnostic Report, and various billing claim forms.

      This presents a interesting challenge to implementers, do you use a general model or a specific model?

      I think there is an underlying architectural issue that needs to be considered as more and more resources are developed.

      HL7 V2.x did not create these kinds of specialized structures, however V3 did and as a result created +1,000 schemas. FHIR needs to determine how it will limit the development of one off resources, or will likely have 500-800 models, each with unique modeling and application development requirements.

      This is an ongoing question that all the design and management leads keep a close eye on.

      Disposition Comment
      Some of the claims resources are under review. CarePlan, FamilyHistory, etc. are major structures and were always planned to be in the set of resources when the initial 100-150 resource estimate was first originated.
