22. Extension.extension:supportingInfo.url
Definition	Source of the definition for the extension code - a logical name or a URL.
Control	1..1
Type	uri
XML Representation	In the XML format, this property is represented as an attribute.
Summary	false
Comments	The definition may point directly to a computable or human-readable definition of the extensibility codes, or it may be a logical URI as declared in some other specification. The definition SHALL be a URI for the Structure Definition defining the extension.
Fixed Value	supportingInfo
