TitleContained Resource Reference

DescriptionThis extension is intended to be used as a work around to a known bug whereby contained resources that are not referenced with the type, 'Reference' are removed before a resource is created in a HAPI FHIR server. This is problematic when referencing with the type, 'canonical'. The extension can be used to reference contained resources so they are retained when added to a HAPI FHIR server.
