Expansion based on SearchParamType v5.0.0-ballot (CodeSystem)
| Code | System | Display | Definition |
| number | http://hl7.org/fhir/search-param-type | Number | Search parameter SHALL be a number (a whole number, or a decimal). |
| date | http://hl7.org/fhir/search-param-type | Date/DateTime | Search parameter is on a date/time. The date format is the standard XML format, though other formats may be supported. |
| string | http://hl7.org/fhir/search-param-type | String | Search parameter is a simple string, like a name part. Search is case-insensitive and accent-insensitive. May match just the start of a string. String parameters may contain spaces. |
| token | http://hl7.org/fhir/search-param-type | Token | Search parameter on a coded element or identifier. May be used to search through the text, display, code and code/codesystem (for codes) and label, system and key (for identifier). Its value is either a string or a pair of namespace and value, separated by a "|", depending on the modifier used. |
| reference | http://hl7.org/fhir/search-param-type | Reference | A reference to another resource (Reference or canonical). |
| composite | http://hl7.org/fhir/search-param-type | Composite | A composite search parameter that combines a search on two values together. |

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 |
