Exercise - Explore the healthcare data model

Completed

In this exercise, you'll learn about the core Care Management data tables. To explore the tables in more detail, see Overview of Microsoft Cloud for Healthcare entities.

The healthcare data model uses some out-of-the-box tables from Microsoft Dynamics 365 applications. The following healthcare solutions use the built-in Dynamics 365 tables.
