Abstract

Each resource has logical table and UML definitions, along with literal XML and JSON templates. All resources have a set of common data, and also a set of data elements that use common data types. The data types Decimal, Identifier, Coding, CodeableConcept, Quantity and Timing are the most likely to cause implementers trouble. Most implementers will work with Patient and the infrastructure resources Bundle, List, Composition, Provenance, Audit Trail and OperationOutcome.
