            EvidenceVariable.version : The identifier that is used to identify this version of the
             evidence variable when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or instance.
             This is an arbitrary value managed by the evidence variable author and is not expected
             to be globally unique. For example, it might be a timestamp (e.g. yyyymmdd) if a managed
             version is not available. There is also no expectation that versions can be placed in
             a lexicographical sequence. To provide a version consistent with the Decision Support
             Service specification, use the format Major.Minor.Revision (e.g. 1.0.0). For more information
             on versioning knowledge assets, refer to the Decision Support Service specification. Note
             that a version is required for non-experimental active artifacts.

          When a resource has no narrative, only systems that fully understand the data can display
           the resource to a human safely. Including a human readable representation in the resource
           makes for a much more robust eco-system and cheaper handling of resources by intermediary
           systems. Some ecosystems restrict distribution of resources to only those systems that
           do fully understand the resources, and as a consequence implementers may believe that
           the narrative is superfluous. However experience shows that such eco-systems often open
           up to new participants over time.

       represent the content of the resource to a human. The narrative need not encode all the
       structured data, but is required to contain sufficient detail to make it &quot;clinically
       safe&quot; for a human to just read the narrative. Resource definitions may define what
       content should be represented in the narrative to ensure clinical safety.
      Contained resources do not have narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have
       a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional
       discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied).  This may be necessary
       for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a &quot;text blob&quot;

       is lost, it is extremely difficult (and context dependent) to restore it again. Contained

      Need to be able to define members in simple codes when the membership aligns well with
       terminology, with common criteria such as observations in a value set or lab tests within
       a year, or with expression language to support criteria that do not fit in the above.

      Need to be able to define members in simple codes when the membership aligns well with
       terminology, with common criteria such as observations in a value set or lab tests within
       a year, or with expression language to support criteria that do not fit in the above.
