Resource Profile: Observation: Risk Factor

This profile defines how to represent a Risk Factor in HL7 FHIR as determined by the PCSP platoform.

Usage:

• Use this Resource Profile: Bundle: Survivor Passport
• Refer to this Resource Profile: Bundle: Survivor Passport
• Examples for this Resource Profile: Observation/ObservationRiskFactor-1, Observation/ObservationRiskFactor-2, Observation/ObservationRiskFactor-3, Observation/ObservationRiskFactor-4
