D.4.1.4 StructureDefinition: - Detailed Descriptions

Definitions for the StructureDefinition-address-identifier Profile.

1. Extension
Definition	A unique identifier associated with a location address and may be used to look up an address, validate an address, or link to other data relating to an address.
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() or (children().count() > id.count())) ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both (: extension.exists() != value.exists())
2. Extension.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. Extension.extension
Definition	May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. 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 can 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.
Invariants	Defined on this element ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())) ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both (: extension.exists() != value.exists())
Slicing	This element introduces a set of slices on Extension.extension. The slices are unordered and Open, and can be differentiated using the following discriminators: value @ url
4. Extension.url
Definition	Source of the definition for the extension code - a logical name or a URL.
Control	1..1
Type	uri
Comments	The definition may point directly to a computable or human-readable definition of the extensibility codes, or it may be a logical URI as declared in some other specification. The definition SHALL be a URI for the Structure Definition defining the extension.
Fixed Value	http://hl7.org.au/fhir/StructureDefinition/address-identifier
5. Extension.value[x]
Definition	An identifier - identifies some entity uniquely and unambiguously. Typically this is used for business identifiers.
Control	1..1 This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1
Type	Identifier(Identifier)
[x] Note	See Choice of Data Types for further information about how to use [x]
Invariants	Defined on this element ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))
