Extensions

There are two extensions to UK Core currently recommended for the UKCore-MessageHeader Profile.

Important note regarding the extension `messageheader-response-request` in the HL7 Core-defined Extensions.

This extension is defined as having a root conformance of 1..1 which mandates the use of the extension if added to any profile. This is an error and has been amended in R5 but will not be updated in R4. Therefore this extension is not hardcoded in the profile as this is not the desired behaviour.

Extension	Context	Link	Comment
messageHeaderInstruction	MessageHeader	Extension UKCore-MessageHeaderInstruction	Acts as a placeholder to allow the MessageHeader to be extended in the short term as required by local use cases. This will use a code value pair approach without any coded values defined. This extension, if deemed useful will then be made into a more defined extension (with a tighter binding to an agreed ValueSet) when the use cases become clearer. One potential use of this extension is for a replacement for the approach used for ITK3 FHIR documents.
messageheader-response-request	MessageHeader	Core-defined Extension messageheader-response-request	This is a HL7 Core-defined extension that is used to indicate the response required to a message.
