| Title | R4B: Identifies where the resource comes from (new) |
| Realm | uv |
| Authority | hl7 |
| Description | R4B: `Meta.source` (new:uri) |
| Purpose | This extension is part of the cross-version definitions generated to enable use of the element `Meta.source` as defined in FHIR R4B in FHIR STU3. The source element is defined as: `Meta.source` 0..1 `uri` Across FHIR versions, the element set has been mapped as: * R4B: `Meta.source` 0..1 `uri` * R4: `Meta.source` 0..1 `uri` Following are the generation technical comments: Element `Meta.source` has a context of Meta based on following the parent source element upwards and mapping to `Meta`. Element `Meta.source` has no mapping targets in FHIR STU3. Typically, this is because the element has been added (is a new element). |
