re:https://schema.org/Physician

Hi Renato, 
Some of your thoughts need a deep discussions. Can you attend one of 
ScheMed or FHIR RDF group meetings and raise such points? This will allow 
to associate other's views as well.

I will just make a small comment on the https://schema.org/Physician.
This need an improvements (in definition I mean) and this on way! This is 
not the only one term/Type/concept to be improved, there are couple of 
such terms under improvements. This is the work being done by ScheMed W3C 
CG.
https://github.com/schemaorg/schemaorg/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=Physician+
https://github.com/schemaorg/schemaorg/issues/1114
etc..

Kind Regards,

Marc Twagirumukiza

I don’t think that is the case. Schema.org's dual purpose is to "promote 
schemas for structured data on web pages", so this includes the exchange 
of such data as a key driver behind creating the terms on schema.org.

Hence, whether we like it or not, just specifying personal data as a 
property in schema.org does not mean we can then not address how privacy 
is handled. This is especially relevant for healthcare data.

My (other related) point is *why* do we need to create a set of schema.org 
URIs for the same FHIR URIs ?

For example, we already have http://hl7.org/fhir/MedicationOrder
We do we now need (and maintain): http://schema.org/MedicationOrder
??

As an aside, look at the schema.org definition for a Physician:
  https://schema.org/Physician
I hope that is not shared too widely ;-)
