Definitions for the ehealth-dk-crn-identifier Profile.
1. Identifier | |
Definition | A technical identifier - identifies some entity uniquely and unambiguously. |
Control | 0..* This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1 |
Invariants | Defined on this element ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() | (children().count() > id.count())) |
2. Identifier.id | |
Definition | unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces. |
Control | 0..1 |
Type | string |
3. Identifier.extension | |
Definition | May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. In order to make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. |
Control | 0..* |
Type | Extension |
Alternate Names | extensions, user content |
Comments | There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone. |
Slicing | This element introduces a set of slices on Identifier.extension. The slices are unordered and Open, and can be differentiated using the following discriminators:
|
4. Identifier.use | |
Definition | The purpose of this identifier. |
Control | 0..1 |
Binding | Identifies the purpose for this identifier, if known . The codes SHALL be taken from IdentifierUse |
Type | code |
Is Modifier | true |
Requirements | Allows the appropriate identifier for a particular context of use to be selected from among a set of identifiers. |
Comments | This is labeled as "Is Modifier" because applications should not mistake a temporary id for a permanent one. Applications can assume that an identifier is permanent unless it explicitly says that it is temporary. |
Fixed Value | official |
5. Identifier.type | |
Definition | A coded type for the identifier that can be used to determine which identifier to use for a specific purpose. |
Control | 0..1 |
Binding | A coded type for an identifier that can be used to determine which identifier to use for a specific purpose. The codes SHALL be taken from Identifier Type Codes; other codes may be used where these codes are not suitable |
Type | CodeableConcept |
Requirements | Allows users to make use of identifiers when the identifier system is not known. |
Comments | This element deals only with general categories of identifiers. It SHOULD not be used for codes that correspond 1..1 with the Identifier.system. Some identifiers may fall into multiple categories due to common usage. Where the system is known, a type is unnecessary because the type is always part of the system definition. However systems often need to handle identifiers where the system is not known. There is not a 1:1 relationship between type and system, since many different systems have the same type. |
6. Identifier.system | |
Definition | Establishes the namespace for the value - that is, a URL that describes a set values that are unique. |
Control | 1..1 |
Type | uri |
Requirements | There are many sets of identifiers. To perform matching of two identifiers, we need to know what set we're dealing with. The system identifies a particular set of unique identifiers. |
Fixed Value | urn:oid:1.2.208.176.1.2 |
Example | General:http://www.acme.com/identifiers/patient |
7. Identifier.value | |
Definition | The portion of the identifier typically relevant to the user and which is unique within the context of the system. |
Control | 1..1 |
Type | string |
Comments | If the value is a full URI, then the system SHALL be urn:ietf:rfc:3986. The value's primary purpose is computational mapping. As a result, it may be normalized for comparison purposes (e.g. removing non-significant whitespace, dashes, etc.) A value formatted for human display can be conveyed using the Rendered Value extension. |
Example | General:123456 |
Invariants | Defined on this element crn: Requirement of danish civil registration numbers (: value.matches('^[0-9]{10}$')) |
8. Identifier.period | |
Definition | Time period during which identifier is/was valid for use. |
Control | 0..1 |
Type | Period |
9. Identifier.assigner | |
Definition | Organization that issued/manages the identifier. |
Control | 0..1 |
Type | Reference(Organization) |
Comments | The Identifier.assigner may omit the .reference element and only contain a .display element reflecting the name or other textual information about the assigning organization. |
