The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes.

The only time that a resource does not have an id is when it is being submitted to the server using a create operation.

A coded type for the identifier that can be used to determine which identifier to use for a specific purpose.

Allows users to make use of identifiers when the identifier system is not known.

This element deals only with general categories of identifiers. It SHOULD not be used for codes that correspond 1..1 with the Identifier.system. Some identifiers may fall into multiple categories due to common usage. Where the system is known, a type is unnecessary because the type is always part of the system definition. However systems often need to handle identifiers where the system is not known. There is not a 1:1 relationship between type and system, since many different systems have the same type.

Establishes the namespace for the value - that is, a URL that describes a set values that are unique.

There are many sets of identifiers. To perform matching of two identifiers, we need to know what set we're dealing with. The system identifies a particular set of unique identifiers.

Identifier.system is always case sensitive.

The portion of the identifier typically relevant to the user and which is unique within the context of the system.

If the value is a full URI, then the system SHALL be urn:ietf:rfc:3986. The value's primary purpose is computational mapping. As a result, it may be normalized for comparison purposes (e.g. removing non-significant whitespace, dashes, etc.) A value formatted for human display can be conveyed using the Rendered Value extension. Identifier.value is to be treated as case sensitive unless knowledge of the Identifier.system allows the processer to be confident that non-case-sensitive processing is safe.

The purpose of this identifier.

Allows the appropriate identifier for a particular context of use to be selected from among a set of identifiers.

Applications can assume that an identifier is permanent unless it explicitly says that it is temporary.

Plain text narrative that identifies the resource in addition to the resource reference.

This is generally not the same as the Resource.text of the referenced resource. The purpose is to identify what's being referenced, not to fully describe it.

Whether this patient record is in active use. Many systems use this property to mark as non-current patients, such as those that have not been seen for a period of time based on an organization's business rules.

It is often used to filter patient lists to exclude inactive patients

Deceased patients may also be marked as inactive for the same reasons, but may be active for some time after death.

Need to be able to mark a patient record as not to be used because it was created in error.

If a record is inactive, and linked to an active record, then future patient/record updates should occur on the other patient.

Identifies the purpose for this name.

Allows the appropriate name for a particular context of use to be selected from among a set of names.

Applications can assume that a name is current unless it explicitly says that it is temporary or old.

Namenszusatz als Bestandteil das Nachnamens, wie in VSDM (Versichertenstammdatenmanagement, "eGK") definiert. Beispiele: Gräfin, Prinz oder Fürst

Die Extension wurde erstellt aufgrund der Anforderung, die auf der eGK vorhandenen Patientenstammdaten in FHIR abbilden zu können. Auf der eGK werden die Namensbestandteile "Namenszusatz" und "Vorsatzwort" getrennt vom Nachnamen gespeichert. Anhand der Liste der zulässigen Namenszusätze ist deutlich erkennbar, dass es sich hierbei sinngemäß um Adelstitel handelt. Das Vorsatzwort kann durch die Core-Extension own-prefix (Canonical: http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/humanname-own-prefix) abgebildet werden, für den Namenszusatz ergibt sich jedoch die Notwendikeit einer nationalen Extension, da in andern Ländern Adelstitel entweder gar nicht oder als reguläres Namenspräfix erfasst werden.

Nachname ohne Vor- und Zusätze. Dient z.B. der alphabetischen Einordnung des Namens.

If the person's surname has legally changed to become (or incorporate) the surname of the person's partner or spouse, this is the person's surname immediately prior to such change. Often this is the person's "maiden name".

Vorsatzwort wie z.B.: von, van, zu Vgl. auch VSDM-Spezifikation der Gematik (Versichertenstammdatenmanagement, "eGK")

An example of a voorvoegsel is the "van" in "Ludwig van Beethoven". Since the voorvoegsel doesn't sort completely alphabetically, it is reasonable to specify it as a separate sub-component.

Vorname der Person

If only initials are recorded, they may be used in place of the full name parts. Initials may be separated into multiple given names but often aren't due to paractical limitations. This element is not called "first name" since given names do not always come first.

Identifies the purpose for this name.

Allows the appropriate name for a particular context of use to be selected from among a set of names.

Telecommunications form for contact point - what communications system is required to make use of the contact.

Note that FHIR strings SHALL NOT exceed 1MB in size

The actual contact point details, in a form that is meaningful to the designated communication system (i.e. phone number or email address).

Need to support legacy numbers that are not in a tightly controlled format.

Additional text data such as phone extension numbers, or notes about use of the contact are sometimes included in the value.

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.

Distinguishes between physical addresses (those you can visit) and mailing addresses (e.g. PO Boxes and care-of addresses). Most addresses are both.

The definition of Address states that "address is intended to describe postal addresses, not physical locations". However, many applications track whether an address has a dual purpose of being a location that can be visited as well as being a valid delivery destination, and Postal addresses are often used as proxies for physical locations (also see the Location resource).

Strassenname (ohne Hausnummer) Bei Angabe einer Strasse in dieser Extension muss diese auch in Address.line angegeben werden um die Interoperabilität mit Systemen zu gewährleisten, die diese Extension nicht verwenden.
