The Girl who Played with FHIR
summary
Model of the Millennium Trilogy uses Patient, RelatedPerson and Person resources bundled and validated in ClinFHIR to represent duplicated identities (Elizabeth has two Patient records), family ties and state agencies. Uses Patient.link circular links and Person.link to assert same human across records, and represents role changes by creating separate RelatedPerson instances with Periods. Finds unavoidable duplication: RelatedPerson per-patient/per-period duplication, contacts can’t be resource targets, and Patient.link allows RelatedPerson despite spec wording; a Tracker issue is planned.
