Cardinality for the Identifier property is specified as 0..1, which is not consistent with this property being mandatory.

The cardinality has been reviewed and updated in v0.4 - the Identifier property has cardinality 1..*, where the NHS number is mandatory to include as a unique identifier, and additional local identifiers are optional
