Topic: Invariants Across Resources


view this post on Zulip Igor Sirkovich (May 11 2020 at 00:13):

I'm wondering if FHIR profiles and validator support invariants across different resources, e.g. validating a relationship between Practitioner.elementA value and PractitionerRole.elementB value. I'm also wondering whether it's advisable to use invariants for this purpose or whether these types of constraints need to be validated outside the FHIR profiles & validator (e.g. using a business rules engine).

you should look at GraphDefinition

Thank you @Grahame Grieve! I will do. I remember seeing some discussions of using GraphDefinition for validations, but I've never looked at the details.
