1.17.2.2 Attachment
See also Base Definition, Examples and Mappings.
| Attachment | |
| Definition | For referring to data content defined in other formats. |
| Control | 1..1 |
| Requirements | Many models need to include data defined in other specifications that is complex and opaque to the healthcare model. This includes documents, media recordings, structured data, etc. |
| Invariants | Defined on this element att-1: It the Attachment has data, it SHALL have a contentType (xpath: not(exists(f:data)) or exists(f:contentType)) |
| Attachment.contentType | |
| Definition | Identifies the type of the data in the attachment and allows a method to be chosen to interpret or render the data. Includes mime type parameters such as charset where appropriate. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Binding | MimeType: Required: BCP 13 (RFCs 2045, 2046, 2047, 4288, 4289 and 2049) (The mime type of an attachment) |
| Type | code |
| Requirements | Processors of the data need to be able to know how to interpret the data. |
| Attachment.language | |
| Definition | The human language of the content. The value can be any valid value according to BCP 47. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Binding | Language: Required: IETF language tag (A human language) |
| Type | code |
| Requirements | Users need to be able to choose between the languages in a set of attachments. |
| Attachment.data | |
| Definition | The actual data of the attachment - a sequence of bytes. In XML, represented using base64. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | base64Binary |
| Requirements | The data needs to able to be transmitted inline. |
| Comments | The base64-encoded data SHALL be expressed in the same character set as the base resource XML or JSON. |
| Attachment.url | |
| Definition | An alternative location where the data can be accessed. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | uri |
| Requirements | The data needs to be transmitted by reference. |
| Comments | If both data and url are provided, the url SHALL point to the same content as the data contains. Urls may be relative references or may reference transient locations such as a wrapping envelope using cid: though this has ramifications for using signatures. Relative URLs are interpreted relative to the service url, like a resource reference, rather than relative to the resource itself. If a URL is provided, it SHALL resolve to actual data. |
| Attachment.size | |
| Definition | The number of bytes of data that make up this attachment. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | integer |
| Requirements | Representing the size allows applications to determine whether they should fetch the content automatically in advance, or refuse to fetch it at all. |
| Comments | The number of bytes is redundant if the data is provided as a base64binary, but is useful if the data is provided as a url reference. |
| Attachment.hash | |
| Definition | The calculated hash of the data using SHA-1. Represented using base64. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | base64Binary |
| Requirements | Included so that applications can verify that the contents of a location have not changed and so that a signature of the content can implicitly sign the content of an image without having to include the data in the instance or reference the url in the signature. |
| Attachment.title | |
| Definition | A label or set of text to display in place of the data. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | string |
| Requirements | Applications need a label to display to a human user in place of the actual data if the data cannot be rendered or perceived by the viewer. |
| Attachment.creation | |
| Definition | The date that the attachment was first created. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | dateTime |
| Requirements | This is often tracked as an integrity issue for use of the attachment. |

| Type | code |
| Is Modifier | true |
| Requirements | Allows the appropriate identifier for a particular context of use to be selected from among a set of identifiers. |
| Comments | This is labeled as "Is Modifier" because applications should not mistake a temporary id for a permanent one. Applications can assume that an identifier is permanent unless it explicitly says that it is temporary. |
| Identifier.label | |
| Definition | A text string for the identifier that can be displayed to a human so they can recognize the identifier. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | string |

| Identifier.value | |
| Definition | The portion of the identifier typically displayed to the user and which is unique within the context of the system. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | string |
| Comments | If the value is a full URI, then the system SHALL be urn:ietf:rfc:3986. |
| Identifier.period | |
| Definition | Time period during which identifier is/was valid for use. |

1.17.2.4 Coding
See also Base Definition, Examples and Mappings.
| Coding | |
| Definition | A reference to a code defined by a terminology system. |
| Control | 1..1 |
| Requirements | References to codes are very common in healthcare models. |
| Comments | Codes may be defined very casually in enumerations or code lists, up to very formal definitions such as SNOMED CT - see the V3 Core Principles for more information. |
| Invariants | Defined on this element cod-1: If a valueSet is provided, a system URI Is required (xpath: not (exists(f:valueSet) and exists(f:code)) or exists(f:system)) |

| Definition | The identification of the code system that defines the meaning of the symbol in the code. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | uri |
| Requirements | Need to be unambiguous about the source of the definition of the symbol. |
| Comments | The URI may be an OID (urn:oid:…) or a UUID (urn:uuid:…). OIDs and UUIDs SHALL be references to the HL7 OID registry. Otherwise, the URI should come from HL7’s list of FHIR defined special URIs or it should de-reference to some definition that establish the system clearly and unambiguously. |
| Coding.version | |
| Definition | The version of the code system which was used when choosing this code. Note that a well-maintained code system does not need the version reported, because the meaning of codes is consistent across versions. However this cannot consistently be assured. and when the meaning is not guaranteed to be consistent, the version SHOULD be exchanged. |
| Note | This is a business versionId, not a resource identifier (see discussion) |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | string |
| Comments | Where the terminology does not clearly define what string should be used to identify code system versions, the recommendation is to use the date (expressed in FHIR date format) on which that version was officially published as the version date. |
| Coding.code | |
| Definition | A symbol in syntax defined by the system. The symbol may be a predefined code or an expression in a syntax defined by the coding system (e.g. post-coordination). |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | code |

| Definition | Indicates that this code was chosen by a user directly - i.e. off a pick list of available items (codes or displays). |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | boolean |
| Requirements | This has been identified as a clinical safety criterium - that this exact code was chosen explicitly, rather than inferred by the system based on some rules or language processing. |
| Comments | Amongst a set of alternatives, a directly chosen code is the most appropriate starting point for new translations. |
1.17.2.5 CodeableConcept
See also Base Definition, Examples and Mappings.
| CodeableConcept | |
| Definition | A concept that may be defined by a formal reference to a terminology or ontology or may be provided by text. |
| Control | 1..1 |
| Requirements | This is a common pattern in healthcare - a concept that may be defined by one or more codes from formal definitions including LOINC and SNOMED CT, and/or defined by the provision of text that captures a human sense of the concept. |
| Comments | Not all terminology uses fit this general pattern. In some cases, models should not use CodeableConcept and use Coding directly and provide their own structure for managing text, codings, translations and the relationship between elements and pre- and post-coordination. |
| Invariants | Defined on this element ccc-2: Only one coding in a set can be chosen directly by the user (xpath: count(f:coding[f:primary/@value=’true’])<=1) |
| CodeableConcept.coding | |
| Definition | A reference to a code defined by a terminology system. |
| Control | 0.. |
| Type | Coding |
| Requirements | Allows for translations and alternate encodings within a code system. Also supports communication of the same instance to systems requiring different encodings. |
| Comments | Codes may be defined very casually in enumerations, or code lists, up to very formal definitions such as SNOMED CT - see the V3 Core Principles for more information. Ordering of codings is undefined and SHALL not be used to infer meaning. |
| *CodeableConcept.text | |
| Definition | A human language representation of the concept as seen/selected/uttered by the user who entered the data and/or which represents the intended meaning of the user. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | string |
| Requirements | The codes from the terminologies do not always capture the correct meaning with all the nuances of the human using them, or sometimes there is no appropriate code at all. In these cases, the text is used to capture the full meaning of the source. |
| Comments | Very often the text is the same as a displayName of one of the codings. |
1.17.2.6 Quantity
See also Base Definition, Examples and Mappings.
| Quantity | |
| Definition | A measured amount (or an amount that can potentially be measured). Note that measured amounts include amounts that are not precisely quantified, including amounts involving arbitrary units and floating currencies. |
| Control | 1..1 |
| Requirements | Need to able to capture all sorts of measured values, even if the measured value are not precisely quantified. Values include exact measures such as 3.51g, customary units such as 3 tablets, and currencies such as $100.32USD. |
| Comments | The context of use may frequently define what kind of quantity this is and therefore what kind of units can be used. The context of use may also restrict the values for the comparator. |
| Invariants | Defined on this element qty-3: If a code for the units is present, the system SHALL also be present (xpath: not(exists(f:code)) or exists(f:system)) |
| Quantity.value | |
| Definition | The value of the measured amount. The value includes an implicit precision in the presentation of the value. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | decimal |

| Comments | The implicit precision in the value should always be honored. Monetary values have their own rules for handling precision (refer to standard accounting text books). |
| Quantity.comparator | |
| Definition | How the value should be understood and represented - whether the actual value is greater or less than the stated value due to measurement issues. E.g. if the comparator is "<" , then the real value is < stated value. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Binding | QuantityComparator: Required: http://hl7.org/fhir/quantity-comparator (How the Quantity should be understood and represented) |
| Type | code |
| Is Modifier | true |
| Meaning if Missing | If there is no comparator, then there is no modification of the value |
| Requirements | Need a framework for handling measures where the value is <5ug/L or >400mg/L due to the limitations of measuring methodology. |
| Comments | This is labeled as "Is Modifier" because the comparator modifies the interpretation of the value significantly. If there is no comparator, then there is no modification of the value. |
| Quantity.units | |
| Definition | A human-readable form of the units. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | string |

| Quantity.code | |
| Definition | A computer processable form of the units in some unit representation system. |
| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | code |
| Requirements | Need a computable form of the units that is fixed across all forms. UCUM provides this for quantities, but SNOMED CT provides many units of interest. |
| Comments | The preferred system is UCUM, but SNOMED CT can also be used (for customary units) or ISO 4217 for currency. The context of use may additionally require a code from a particular system. |

| Range | |
| Definition | A set of ordered Quantities defined by a low and high limit. |
| Control | 1..1 |
| Requirements | Need to be able to specify ranges of values. |
| Comments | The stated low and high value are assumed to have arbitrarily high precision when it comes to determining which values are in the range. I.e. 1.99 is not in the range 2 -> 3. |
| Invariants | Defined on this element rng-2: If present, low SHALL have a lower value than high (xpath: not(exists(f:low/f:value/@value)) or not(exists(f:high/f:value/@value)) or (number(f:low/f:value/@value) <= number(f:high/f:value/@value))) rng-3: Quantity values cannot have a comparator when used in a Range (xpath: not(exists(f:low/f:comparator) or exists(f:high/f:comparator))) |

| Control | 1..1 |
| Comments | This is not a duration - that’s a measure of time (a separate type), but a duration that occurs at a fixed value of time. A Period specifies a range of time; the context of use will specify whether the entire range applies (e.g. "the patient was an inpatient of the hospital for this time range") or one value from the range applies (e.g. "give to the patient between these two times"). If a duration might be required, specify the type as Interval|Duration. |
| Invariants | Defined on this element per-1: If present, start SHALL have a lower value than end (xpath: not(exists(f:start)) or not(exists(f:end)) or (f:start/@value <= f:end/@value)) |
| Period.start | |

| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | dateTime |
| Meaning if Missing | If the end of the period is missing, it means that the period is ongoing |
| Comments | The high value includes any matching date/time. i.e. 2012-02-03T10:00:00 is in a period that has a end value of 2012-02-03. |

| Control | 0..1 |
| Type | integer |
| Requirements | Repetitions may be limited by end time or total occurrences. |
| Comments | An end need not be specified. |
| Invariants | Affect this element tim-3: At most, only one of count or end can be present (xpath: not(exists(f:count) and exists(f:end))) |

1.17.2.15 Signature
See also Base Definition, Examples and Mappings.
| Signature | |
| Definition | |
An XML digital signature along with supporting context.
There are a number of places where content must be signed in healthcare.
The elements of the Signature Resource are for ease of access of these elements. The non-repudiation proof comes from the XML-Signature validation, which includes validation of the referenced objects (e.g., Resources) (a.k.a., Content) in the XML-Signature Detached form.
An indication of the reason that the entity signed this document. This may be explicitly included as part of the signature information and can be used when determining accountability for various actions concerning the document.
Examples include attesting to: authorship, correct transcription, and witness of specific event. Also known as a “Commitment Type Indication”.
When the digital signature was signed.
This should agree with the information in the signature.
A reference to an application-usable description of the person that signed the certificate (e.g. the signature used their private key).
This should agree with the information in the signature.
The base64 encoding of the XML-Signature.
Where the signed content is a FHIR Resource(s), the signature is of the XML form of the Resource(s) using XML-Signature (XMLDIG) "Detached Signature" form.
