## Union of http://hl7.eu/fhir/base/StructureDefinition/patient-eu-core and http://hl7.eu/fhir/base/StructureDefinition/patient-eu-core

This is the set of resources that conform to either of the profiles Patient (EU core) (http://hl7.eu/fhir/base/StructureDefinition/patient-eu-core) and Patient (EU core) (http://hl7.eu/fhir/base/StructureDefinition/patient-eu-core). E.g. what you have to deal with if you get resources conforming to one of them
