Normative Candidate Note: This page is candidate normative content for R4 in the Conformance Package. Once normative, it will lose it's Maturity Level, and breaking changes will no longer be made.
This is a value set defined by the FHIR project.

All codes from system http://hl7.org/fhir/structure-definition-kind
Code | Display | Definition |
primitive-type | Primitive Data Type | A primitive type that has a value and an extension. These can be used throughout Resource and extension definitions. Only the base specification can define primitive types. |
complex-type | Complex Data Type | A complex structure that defines a set of data elements. These can be used throughout Resource and extension definitions, and in logical models. |
resource | Resource | A resource defined by the FHIR specification. |
logical | Logical Model | A conceptual package of data that will be mapped to resources for implementation. |

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
Lvl | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. For value sets, levels are mostly used to organize codes for user convenience, but may follow code system hierarchy - see Code System for further information |
Source | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract') |
Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept |
Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code |
