## Union of https://gematik.de/fhir/epa-medication/StructureDefinition/epa-medication and https://gematik.de/fhir/epa-medication/StructureDefinition/epa-medication

This is the set of resources that conform to either of the profiles EPA Medication (https://gematik.de/fhir/epa-medication/StructureDefinition/epa-medication) and EPA Medication (https://gematik.de/fhir/epa-medication/StructureDefinition/epa-medication). E.g. what you have to deal with if you get resources conforming to one of them
