description: An additional identifier for the target resource. This is used when there is no way to reference the other resource directly, either because the entity it represents is not available through a FHIR server, or because there is no way for the author of the resource to convert a known identifier to an actual location. There is no requirement that a Reference.identifier point to something that is actually exposed as a FHIR instance, but it SHALL point to a business concept that would be expected to be exposed as a FHIR instance, and that instance would need to be of a FHIR resource type allowed by the reference. package_name: hl7.fhir.uv.extensions derivation: constraint name: AdditionalIdentifier type: Extension elements: extension: {index: 0} url: pattern: {type: Uri, value: 'http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/additionalIdentifier'} index: 1 value: choices: [valueIdentifier] index: 3 valueIdentifier: {type: Identifier, choiceOf: value, index: 4} package_version: 5.1.0-snapshot1 extensions: {} class: extension kind: complex-type url: http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/additionalIdentifier base: http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/Extension version: 5.1.0-snapshot1 required: [valueIdentifier, value]
