location
followOnOf
unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any
string value that does not contain spaces.
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.
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.
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.
Value of extension - may be a resource or one of a constrained set of the data types (see
Extensibility in the spec for list).
