DSTU Note: Feedback is welcome on whether BodySite should be an independent resource or a datatype to be used when a resource element is an anatomic location (for example Observation.bodySite)

Feedback is welcome here . The BodySite resource contains details about the anatomical location of a specimen or body part, including patient information, identifiers, as well as text descriptons and images. It provides for the addition of modifiers such as laterality and directionality to the anatomic location for those use cases where precoordination of codes is not possible. The BodySite resource supports recording and tracking of an anatomic location or structure on a patient outside the context of another resource. For example it can be the target of a .

4.2.2 Boundaries and Relationships Boundaries and Relationships The BodySite resource is not intended to substitute for precoordination of codes. If precoordination of codes is supported by an implementation and a resource element has a choice of codeableConcept or BodySite, the codeableConcept should be used. This resource is not intended for describing the type of anatomical location but rather a specific body site on a specific patient. This resource is referenced by
