IdentifierII - see see identifier pattern at http://wiki.hl7.org/index.php?title=Common_Design_Patterns#Identifier_Pattern for relevant discussion. The Identifier class is a little looser than the v3 type II because it allows URIs as well as registered OIDs or GUIDs
    useN/A - this is sometimes implied by context
    labelN/A - this is sometimes implied by context
    systemII.root
    valueII.extension or II.root if system indicates OID or GUID

    assignerII.assigningAuthorityName but note that this is an improper use by the definition of the field
