Resource Profile: Maternal Linkage Content Bundle

Maternal Linkage Content Bundle (Bundle): A bundle containing instances of the resources comprising innformation about most recent pregnancy of a decedent.

Usages:

• Use this Profile: Maternal Linkage Submission Message and Maternal Linkage Update Message
• Examples for this Profile: Bundle/MaternalLinkageBundle-Birth, Bundle/MaternalLinkageBundle-BirthNoCert, Bundle/MaternalLinkageBundle-BirthPendingCert, Bundle/MaternalLinkageBundle-EctopicPregnancy... Show 4 more, Bundle/MaternalLinkageBundle-Extensive-PluralBirthAndFetalDeathWithCert, Bundle/MaternalLinkageBundle-FetalDeathWithCertPending, Bundle/MaternalLinkageBundle-PluralBirthAndFetalDeathWithCert and Bundle/MaternalLinkageBundle-PluralBirthWithCert
