    Address Class

    Base StructureDefinition for Address Type: An address expressed using postal conventions (as opposed to GPS or other location definition formats). This data type may be used to convey addresses for use in delivering mail as well as for visiting locations which might not be valid for mail delivery. There are a variety of postal address formats defined around the world.

    Need to be able to record postal addresses, along with notes about their use.

    FHIR Specification

    • Short: An address expressed using postal conventions (as opposed to GPS or other location definition formats)

    • Comment: Note: address is intended to describe postal addresses for administrative purposes, not to describe absolute geographical coordinates. Postal addresses are often used as proxies for physical locations (also see the Location resource).

    Address.type Element

    FHIR Specification

    • Short: postal | physical | both
    • Definition: Distinguishes between physical addresses (those you can visit) and mailing addresses (e.g. PO Boxes and care-of addresses). Most addresses are both.
    • Comment: The definition of Address states that "address is intended to describe postal addresses, not physical locations". However, many applications track whether an address has a dual purpose of being a location that can be visited as well as being a valid delivery destination, and Postal addresses are often used as proxies for physical locations (also see the Location resource).
