Extension Library

This extension library contains all the extensions for the Care Connect Profiles. The table below lists all the current extensions and the context of use. The context of use column indicates the profile and /or element where the extension may be applied. The type column indicates whether the extension is an modifierExtension or not. The general rule is extensions can be ignored by receivers*. When a modifierExtension is received it MUST NOT be ignored as it modifies the meaning of the element or elements that contains it. Typically, this means information that qualifies or negates the primary meaning of the element that contains it.
