Description
Hello,
The Patient resource currently only includes Date of Birth but not Age. As DOB is considered PHI, for de-identifying purposes we collect Age instead of (or in addition to) DOB as part of a test order to comply with CLIA regulations.
Can Age be added as an extension to the patient resource? We have created the extension and would appreciate it if it can be added to the HL7 registry.
Thanks, Mullai
