Often, this is a reference to an implementation guide that defines the special rules along with other profiles etc.
Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element. Often, when used, the URL is a reference to an implementation guide that defines these special rules as part of it's narrative along with other profiles, value sets, etc.

The Resource.language should not be assumed to apply to the narrative automatically.

The narrative need not encode all the structured data, but is required to contain sufficient detail to make it "clinically safe" for a human to just read the narrative. Resource definitions may define what content should be represented in the narrative to ensure clinical safety.
Contained resources do not have narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied). This may be necessary for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a "text blob" or where text is additionally entered raw or narrated and encoded information is added later.

Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.
Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).
Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions.

Often, specific identities are assigned for the agent.
pCHDCF modelling for care team concepts (including provider identifiers) is still underway. The requirements to support certain types of identifiers (e.g., province/territory registration identifiers) across all use cases and decisions on whether the identifier requirements should apply to both Practitioner and PractitionerRole are still undefined. Furthermore, the ways that these identifiers will be differentiated for conformance testing purposes is still undefined (see comment on identifier.type). For this reason, slice modelling and application of obligations towards certain identifiers is not currently expressed in this profile. The profile will continue to evolve as care team details undergo data modelling in the pCHDCF.

Allows users to make use of identifiers when the identifier system is not known.
The value in identifier.type is typically used to differentiate between identifiers that serve distinct purposes (e.g., Medical License Number, Regional Registry ID, Health Plan Identifier). Profiles typically use the identifier.type to differentiate between expectations that are expressed for some identifier types but not others. However, current implementations of practitioner identifiers in Canada use the identifier.type of 'Provider Number' (coded as 'PRN') to convey a number of different types of identifiers (e.g., registration number, license numbers, and billing numbers). Should there be expectations in the future for this profile to differentiate between these identifiers, current typing practices may need to change and/or further details may need to be used (e.g., identifier.system) to differentiate between concepts like registration number, license number, and billing number.

Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.
There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.

The definition of Address states that "address is intended to describe postal addresses, not physical locations". However, many applications track whether an address has a dual purpose of being a location that can be visited as well as being a valid delivery destination, and Postal addresses are often used as proxies for physical locations (also see the Location resource).

| modifierExtension | Σ ?!

Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.
Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).
Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions.
