Mailing and home or office addresses. A sequence of address parts, such as street or post office Box, city, postal code, country, etc.
**Australian adaptation of the [HL7 International CDA PostalAddress datatype]( https://hl7.org/cda/stds/core/2.0.1-sd/StructureDefinition-AD.html)**. This is a generated StructureDefinition that describes CDA - that is, CDA as it actually is for R2. The intent of this StructureDefinition is to enable CDA to be a FHIR resource. That enables the FHIR infrastructure - API, conformance, query - to be used directly against CDA
