Topic: Profiling Date and DateTime
Johannes Höhn (Mar 05 2019 at 15:38):
The datatypes date and dateTime allow for barely partially defined dates, which makes a lot of sense when e.g. the full birthday of a patient is not known. However there are also areas where in some jurisdictions there are legal requirements, that dates are fully specified. Is it possible to use e.g. valuesets in a profile that the dates need to be stated?

Your could introduce some additional FHIRPath constraints in your custom profiles, e.g. verify that all date components (year, month, day) are specified.
Eric Haas (Mar 05 2019 at 21:02):
you constraint date with an invariant e.g. date.matches([regex])

Or simply the length was long enough.
