Race and Ethnicity

Pull out responses about race and ethnicity.

Motivation

  1. Remove need for digging into the JSON for queries.

Challenges

  1. Should these instead be a custom domain (text[] with a check constraint on values)?

Sketch of a schema

For race and ethnicity (hispanic/latino):

race
  race_id
  name
  snomedct_term

encounter_race
  encounter_id
  race_id

encounter
  hispanic_or_latino (bool) ???
