Intro

(FHIR) Profile is responsible for:

• define extensions
• bind valuesets
• set constraints on resource - aka required fields

Aidbox Profiles is "human" way to do it

Principles:

• No multiple inheretance
• No closed-profiles

Example

Required fields

resourceType: AidboxProfile
resource: Patient
id: My-Patient-Profile

     # name is required - for collection means more 1
     isRequired: true
     attrs:
       given: {isRequired: true}
       family: {isRequired: true}
