FHIR Guidance
Description
A person may assert several simultaneous gender identities, for example in different settings. They may also use different names in those different settings.
Is there a recommended way to indicate which GI and which name belong together?
If so, what is it?
Is this just a theoretical problem?
What are some real-world examples?
The relationship between the concepts could be
1/
name is used in setting and
gender is used in setting
This introduces a new concept of setting or setting type
2/
name is used with gender
In FHIR this could be an extension on name. The extension could be a gender element or a pointer to an existing gender element elsewhere in the resource.
