Resource Profile: Media

This profile sets minimum expectations for the Media resource to searching for and fetching media like a photo, video, or audio recording acquired or used in healthcare, associated with a patient or provider.

Usage:

• Refer to this Resource Profile: DiagnosticReportImaging, DiagnosticReportLab, ImagingStudy and Observation
• Examples for this Resource Profile: Media/example-01
