Let's Build a FHIR Spec: Profiling with Forge
summary
Walks through eight exercises using Forge for FHIR R4 to build and publish profiles: creates a Patient profile (name 1.., family and given mandatory, DOB and gender required, photos forbidden and deceased as boolean only), reuses HL7 birthplace extension and authors a complex extension with an identifier, period and status, builds Condition and Practitioner profiles with references (Condition.subject targets the Patient canonical, recorder must be a Practitioner with identifier and name), binds Condition.code to SNOMED Clinical Finding binding required, derives a US Core Immunization profile and enforces route and quantity, demonstrates slicing on Practitioner.identifier using identifier system and use discriminator*, and publishes to Simplifier for validation.
