      The Person resource is not intended to be the demographic store for all patients/people.

      Its core usage is for the very basics and linkages.

      Please use an extension if you want to track this information in your use case, and we will track if others also request this property and may consider a standard extension in the future.

    Description

      Patient.deceased allows a patient (administratively speaking) to die, but Person is not able to die currently. It seems reasonable to allow Person.deceased in the exact same way as Patient.deceased.
