The
base
definition
for
elements
defined
as
part
of
a
resource
definition.
Data
Type
elements
do
not
use
this
type.
For
instance,
Patient.contact
is
an
element
that
is
defined
as
part
of
the
patient
resource,
so
it
automatically
has
the
type
BackboneElement
.
Note
that
the
descendent
types
of
BackboneElement
are
all
declared
implicitly
as
part
of
the
definitions
of
the
resources.
