0. Address
Definition	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 XXXX. Un indirizzo 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.

Un indirizzo 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. 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.
Short	Indirizzo fisico o postaleAn address expressed using postal conventions (as opposed to GPS or other location definition formats)

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.
Short	ExtensionAdditional content defined by implementations
