Esiste una varietà di formati di indirizzi postali definiti in tutto il mondo. Questo profilo (Address-it-base) estende il datatype base Address includendo una serie di informazioni rilevanti per esprimere gli indirizzi in Italia.

Un Address-it-base è un indirizzo FHIR valido; i sistemi che non supportano le estensioni utilizzate saranno in grado comunque di eseguire il rendering e lavorare con un Address-it-base.

Un indirizzo Address-it-base rende alcune parti di indirizzo comunicabili separatamente. Queste parti sono necessarie in alcuni scenari d'uso italiani, ma potrebbero non avere valore per i sistemi internazionali quando le informazioni vengono inviate all'estero.

Nota: address è per indirizzi postali, non per la localizzazione fisica.

Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.

There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.

The purpose of this address.

Allows an appropriate address to be chosen from a list of many.

Applications can assume that an address is current unless it explicitly says that it is temporary or old.

Distinguishes between physical addresses (those you can visit) and mailing addresses (e.g. PO Boxes and care-of addresses). Most addresses are both.

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).

Specifies the entire address as it should be displayed e.g. on a postal label. This may be provided instead of or as well as the specific parts.

A renderable, unencoded form.

Can provide both a text representation and parts. Applications updating an address SHALL ensure that when both text and parts are present, no content is included in the text that isn't found in a part.

This component contains the house number, apartment number, street name, street direction, P.O. Box number, delivery hints, and similar address information.
