Definitions for the medication-generic-name extension.
Guidance on how to interpret the contents of this table can be found here
0. Extension | |
Definition | The generic medication text name for an associated medication. This may not be the same as the subject medication (prescribed, dispensed or stated) but may be used to provide an additional or equivalent drug name that is a generic medication concept. |
Short | Medication generic drug name |

0. Extension | |
Definition | The generic medication text name for an associated medication. This may not be the same as the subject medication (prescribed, dispensed or stated) but may be used to provide an additional or equivalent drug name that is a generic medication concept. Optional Extension Element - found in all resources. |

Control | 0..1* This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1 |
Is Modifier | false |
Invariants | 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() )ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both (extension.exists() != value.exists()) |
2. Extension.url | |
Definition | Source of the definition for the extension code - a logical name or a URL. |
Short | identifies the meaning of the extension |
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. |
Control | 1..1 |
Type | uri |

XML Format | In the XML format, this property is represented as an attribute. |

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. |
Short | Unique id for inter-element referencing |
Control | 0..1 |
Type | string |
Is Modifier | false |
XML Format | In the XML format, this property is represented as an attribute. |
Summary | false |
4. 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. |
Short | Additional content defined by implementations |
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 Extension.extension . The slices are unordered and Open, and can be differentiated using the following discriminators: |
