Description
This is an issue with most (all?) versions of US Core.
USCDI defines "Preferred Language": https://www.healthit.gov/isa/taxonomy/term/751/uscdi-v1
US Core Patient has, under "Additional USCDI Requirements", "a communication language". US Core Patient has constrained Patient.communication.language, but there is no constraint on the boolean Patient.communication.preferred.
Actually not sure if this is an issue with USCDI (The data element isn't well defined - is the element correctly named as "Preferred" Language?) or an issue with US Core.
