DescriptionR4: `InsurancePlan.contact` (new:BackboneElement)
PurposeThis extension is part of the cross-version definitions generated to enable use of the element `InsurancePlan.contact` as defined in FHIR R4 in FHIR STU3. The source element is defined as: `InsurancePlan.contact` 0..* `BackboneElement` Following are the generation technical comments: Element `InsurancePlan.contact` is not mapped to FHIR STU3, since FHIR R4 `InsurancePlan` is not mapped. Element `InsurancePlan.contact` has no mapping targets in FHIR STU3. Typically, this is because the element has been added (is a new element).
