Short description

Requirements
Allows the appropriate identifier for a particular context of use to be selected from among a set of identifiers.

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.

Short description
Description of identifier Definition
A coded type for the identifier that can be used to determine which identifier to use for a specific purpose.
Requirements
Allows users to make use of identifiers when the identifier system is not known.
Comments
This element deals only with general categories of identifiers. It SHOULD not be used for codes that correspond 1..1 with the Identifier.system. Some identifiers may fall into multiple categories due to common usage.
Where the system is known, a type is unnecessary because the type is always part of the system definition. However systems often need to handle identifiers where the system is not known. There is not a 1:1 relationship between type and system, since many different systems have the same type.

Establishes the namespace for the value - that is, a URL that describes a set values that are unique.

The portion of the identifier typically relevant to the user and which is unique within the context of the system.
Comments
If the value is a full URI, then the system SHALL be urn:ietf:rfc:3986. The value's primary purpose is computational mapping. As a result, it may be normalized for comparison purposes (e.g. removing non-significant whitespace, dashes, etc.) A value formatted for human display can be conveyed using the Rendered Value extension.

Short description
Time period when id is/was valid for use Definition
Time period during which identifier is/was valid for use.
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 duration is required, specify the type as Interval|Duration.

Short description
Whether the organization's record is still in active use Definition
Whether the organization's record is still in active use.
Requirements
Need a flag to indicate a record is no longer to be used and should generally be hidden for the user in the UI.
Comments
Default is true.
This active flag is not intended to be used to mark an organizations as temporarily closed or under construction. Instead the Location(s) within the Organization should have the suspended status. If further details of the reason for the suspension are required, then an extension on this element should be used.
This element is labeled as a modifier because it may be used to mark that the resource was created in error.

Short description
Kind of organization Definition
The kind(s) of organization that this is.
Requirements
Need to be able to track the kind of organization that this is - different organization types have different uses.
Comments
Organizations can be corporations, wards, sections, clinical teams, government departments, etc. Note that code is generally a classifier of the type of organization; in many applications, codes are used to identity a particular organization (say, ward) as opposed to another of the same type - these are identifiers, not codes
When considering if multiple types are appropriate, you should evaluate if child organizations would be a more appropriate use of the concept, as different types likely are in different sub-areas of the organization. This is most likely to be used where type values have orthogonal values, such as a religious, academic and medical center.
We expect that some jurisdictions will profile this optionality to be a single cardinality.
