Condition resource - capture a condition and classify it as preexisting condition

Hi,
Condition resource - capture a condition and classify it as preexisting condition

Please advise what element on FHIR is appropriate to capture the above information.

Thanks in advance!

It may depend on your use case, but a couple options to consider:

  1. Condition.onset has a value that pre-dates the Condition.recordedDate – this assumes you know the actual or estimated onset (or past asserted date, which is an extension)
  2. Claim.diagnosis.onAdmission
