Definitions for the cqf-resourceType extension.
Guidance on how to interpret the contents of this table can be found here.
1. Extension | |
Definition | Specifies the type of resource the canonical references. If present, this extension SHALL be consistent with the actual type of the resource specified by the canonical on which it appears. Optional Extension Element - found in all resources. |
Control | 0..1* |
Comments | Knowing the actual type of the target of a canonical resource allows for improved processing of knowledge artifacts, but this information cannot be reliably inferred from the canonical URL, the URL must be resolved. This extension can be used to provide this information to facilitate dependency processing. |
2. Extension.extension | |
Control | 0..0* |
3. Extension.url | |
Fixed Value | http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/cqf-resourceType |
4. Extension.value[x] | |
Control | 10..1 |
Binding | The codes SHALL be taken from ResourceTypeFor codes, see (unbound) |
Type | Choice of: , date, Meta, Address, Attachment, integer, Count, DataRequirement, Dosage, uuid, Identifier, Coding, SampledData, id, positiveInt, Distance, Period, Duration, canonical, Range, RelatedArtifact, base64Binary, UsageContext, Timing, decimal, CodeableConcept, ParameterDefinition, dateTime, string, Contributor, oid, instant, ContactPoint, HumanName, Money, markdown, Ratio, Age, Reference, TriggerDefinition, Quantity, uri, url, Annotation, ContactDetail, boolean, Expression, Signature, unsignedInt, time |
[x] Note | See Choice of Data Types for further information about how to use [x] |
Primitive Value | This primitive element may be present, or absent, or replaced by an extension |
Requirements | Implementations need to be able to tell what type of resource the canonical reference is targeting (cannot infer this from the URI) |

1. Extension | |
Definition | Specifies the type of resource the canonical references. If present, this extension SHALL be consistent with the actual type of the resource specified by the canonical on which it appears. Optional Extension Element - found in all resources. |
Control | 0..1* This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1 |
Comments | Knowing the actual type of the target of a canonical resource allows for improved processing of knowledge artifacts, but this information cannot be reliably inferred from the canonical URL, the URL must be resolved. This extension can be used to provide this information to facilitate dependency processing. |
Invariants | Defined on this element ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())) ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both (: extension.exists() != value.exists()) |
2. Extension.extension | |
Definition | An Extension May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. |
Control | 0..0* |
Type | Extension |
Summary | false |
Alternate Names | extensions, user content |
Comments | There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone. |
Invariants | Defined on this element ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())) ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both (: extension.exists() != value.exists()) |
Slicing | This element introduces a set of slices on Extension.extension. The slices are unordered and Open, and can be differentiated using the following discriminators:
|
3. Extension.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 | http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/cqf-resourceType |
4. Extension.value[x] | |
Definition | Value of extension - must be one of a constrained set of the data types (see Extensibility for a list). |
Control | 10..1 |
Binding | The codes SHALL be taken from ResourceTypeFor codes, see (unbound) |
