Topic: Pregnancy status in FHIR

Does anyone know if there is a standard or best practice in FHIR for determining if a patient is pregnant?

I don't work on an EHR, but I would expect it would be a Condition with the appropriate Snomed code and onset and clinical status.

Condition would be the preferred way of sharing that information. However, if you want to deal with the messier world of how data *could* be exposed, you should probably look at Observation too.
