| Comments | Element |
| Control | 10..* This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1 |
| Is Modifier | false |

| 2. Extension.url | |
| Definition | Source of the definition for the extension code - a logical name or a URL. |
| Short | identifies the meaning of the extension |
| 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. |
| Control | 1..1 |
| Type | uri |
| Primitive Value | This primitive element may be present, or absent, or replaced by an extension |
| XML Format | In the XML format, this property is represented as an attribute. |
| Fixed Value | http://hl7.org/fhir/5.0/StructureDefinition/extension-ImplementationGuide.fhirVersion |
| 4. Extension.value[x] | |
| Definition | The version(s) of the FHIR specification that this ImplementationGuide targets - e.g. describes how to use. The value of this element is the formal version of the specification, without the revision number, e.g. [publication].[major].[minor], which is 4.6.0. for this version. Value of extension - may be a resource or one of a constrained set of the data types (see Extensibility in the spec for list). |
| Short | FHIR Version(s) this Implementation Guide targetsValue of extension |
| Comments | Most implementation guides target a single version - e.g. they describe how to use a particular version, and the profiles and examples etc. are valid for that version. But some implementation guides describe how to use multiple different versions of FHIR to solve the same problem, or in concert with each other. Typically, the requirement to support multiple versions arises as implementation matures and different implementation communities are stuck at different versions by regulation or market dynamics. |

| XML Format | In the XML format, this property is represented as an attribute. |
| 4. Extension.extension | |
| Definition | May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. In order 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 is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. |
| Short | Additional Content defined by implementations |
| 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. |
