FHIR-39219 Data element is discriminatory
Description
In response to comments about biological sex and patient safety and quality care, here are more comments ... "For example, someone assigned male at birth, who no longer has testes, does not produce Testosterone and with HRT has typical levels of estrogen in their body. Not sure how that matches their ‘biological’ (not a good word by the way) sex." Also "this IS about safety and quality of care, that someone is seen as who they are and information regarding the organs they have and their hormone compliment etc is available." and "being apolitical seems to equate with accepting the historical status quo and disregarding gender diversity as a fundamental truth wholly ignored by a cisnormative system. Discrimination tends to be best understood by those who are discriminated against. It is the health system as a whole and digital health systems in particular that are the problem, not the patients."
