| Description | STU3: `Patient.telecom` additional types (ContactPoint) additional types from child elements (period, rank, system, use, value) |
| Purpose | This extension is part of the cross-version definitions generated to enable use of the element `Patient.telecom` as defined in FHIR STU3 in FHIR R4B. The source element is defined as: `Patient.telecom` 0..* `ContactPoint` Across FHIR versions, the element set has been mapped as: * STU3: `Patient.telecom` 0..* `ContactPoint` * R4: `Patient.telecom` 0..* `ContactPoint` * R4B: `Patient.telecom` 0..* `ContactPoint` Following are the generation technical comments: Element `Patient.telecom` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `Patient.telecom` as `SourceIsBroaderThanTarget`. The mappings for `Patient.telecom` do not cover the following types: ContactPoint. The mappings for `Patient.telecom` do not cover the following types based on type expansion: period, rank, system, use, value. |
