Expansion based on BundleType v4.3.0-snapshot1 (CodeSystem)

All codes in this table are from the system http://hl7.org/fhir/bundle-type

Code	Display	Definition
document	Document	The bundle is a document. The first resource is a Composition.
message	Message	The bundle is a message. The first resource is a MessageHeader.
transaction	Transaction	The bundle is a transaction - intended to be processed by a server as an atomic commit.
transaction-response	Transaction Response	The bundle is a transaction response. Because the response is a transaction response, the transaction has succeeded, and all responses are error free.

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
