Definitions for the MeasureCriteria data type profile.
| 1. Expression | |
| Definition | A expression that is evaluated in a specified context and returns a value. The context of use of the expression must specify the context in which the expression is evaluated, and how the result of the expression is used.  | 
| Control | 0..* This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1 | 
| Invariants | Defined on this element ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())) exp-1: An expression or a reference must be provided (: expression.exists() or reference.exists())  | 
| 2. Expression.id | |
| Definition | Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.  | 
| Control | 0..1 | 
| Type | string | 
| 3. Expression.extension | |
| Definition | 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..* | 
| Type | Extension | 
| 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 Expression.extension. The slices are unordered and Open, and can be differentiated using the following discriminators: 
  | 
| 4. Expression.description | |
| Definition | A brief, natural language description of the condition that effectively communicates the intended semantics.  | 
| Control | 1..1 | 
| Type | string | 
| Invariants | Defined on this element ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))  | 
| 5. Expression.name | |
| Definition | A short name assigned to the expression to allow for multiple reuse of the expression in the context where it is defined.  | 
| Control | 0..1 | 
| Type | id | 
| Invariants | Defined on this element ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))  | 
| 6. Expression.language | |
| Definition | The media type of the language for the expression.  | 
| Control | 1..1 | 
| Binding | The media type of the expression language. The codes SHALL be taken from ExpressionLanguage; other codes may be used where these codes are not suitable Max Binding: http://www.rfc-editor.org/bcp/bcp13.txt  | 
| Type | code | 
| Invariants | Defined on this element ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))  | 
| 7. Expression.expression | |
| Definition | An expression in the specified language that returns a value.  | 
| Control | 1..1 | 
| Type | string | 
| Invariants | Defined on this element ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))  | 
| 8. Expression.reference | |
| Definition | A URI that defines where the expression is found.  | 
| Control | 0..1 | 
| Type | uri | 
| Comments | If both a reference and an expression is found, the reference SHALL point to the same expression.  | 
| Invariants | Defined on this element ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))  |
