**Practitioner** covers all individuals who are engaged in the healthcare process and healthcare-related services as part of their formal responsibilities and this Resource is used for attribution of activities and responsibilities to these individuals. Practitioners include (but are not limited to): physicians, other clinicians, home care providers, administrative staff, IT personnel, and more.

Any elements that are duplicated with the Practitioner resource (i.e., telecom, address) as it relates to providing a service should be recorded in PractitionerRole instead of Practitioner.
