| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| *Official URL*:http://hl7.org/fhir/us/qicore/StructureDefinition/qicore-location | *Version*:7.0.2 | |
| * Standards status: *[Trial-use](http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/versions.html#std-process) | [Maturity Level](http://hl7.org/fhir/versions.html#maturity): 4 | *Computable Name*:QICoreLocation |

 
Profile of Location for decision support/quality metrics. Defines the core set of elements and extensions for quality rule and measure authors. 

"Must Have", "QI Elements" and "primary code path" are defined in the
[QI-Core Must Support section](index.md#mustsupport-flag).

**Must Have:**
* name: Name by which a facility or location is known.

**QI Elements:**
* status: (QI) active | suspended | inactive
* telecom: (QI) Contact details of the location
* managingOrganization: (QI) Organization responsible for provisioning and upkeep
* type: (QI) Category of service or resource available in a location.

**Primary code path:**type

(PCPath) This element is the primary code path for this resource
[CQL Retrieve](https://cql.hl7.org/02-authorsguide.html#retrieve)

**Usage** 
```
define "Encounter With ICU Location Stay 1 Day or More":
  "Encounter With Age Range and Without VTE Diagnosis or Obstetrical Conditions" QualifyingEncounter
    where exists ( QualifyingEncounter.location Location
      where Global.GetLocation(Location.location).type in "Intensive Care Unit"
        and Global."LengthInDays"(Location.period) >= 1
        and Location.period starts during TJC."CalendarDayOfOrDayAfter"(start of QualifyingEncounter.period)
    )

```
