Group 1 Mapping from http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/Group|4.3.0 to Groupversion: 5.0.0)

Source CodeRelationshipTarget CodeComment
Group.meta (meta)is equivalent toGroup.metaElement `Group.meta` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.meta` as `Equivalent`.
Group.implicitRules (implicitRules)is equivalent toGroup.implicitRulesElement `Group.implicitRules` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.implicitRules` as `Equivalent`. Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element. Often, when used, the URL is a reference to an implementation guide that defines these special rules as part of it's narrative along with other profiles, value sets, etc.
Group.language (language)is equivalent toGroup.languageElement `Group.language` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.language` as `Equivalent`. Language is provided to support indexing and accessibility (typically, services such as text to speech use the language tag). The html language tag in the narrative applies to the narrative. The language tag on the resource may be used to specify the language of other presentations generated from the data in the resource. Not all the content has to be in the base language. The Resource.language should not be assumed to apply to the narrative automatically. If a language is specified, it should it also be specified on the div element in the html (see rules in HTML5 for information about the relationship between xml:lang and the html lang attribute).
Group.text (text)is equivalent toGroup.textElement `Group.text` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.text` as `Equivalent`. Contained resources do not have narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied). This may be necessary for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a "text blob" or where text is additionally entered raw or narrated and encoded information is added later.
Group.contained (contained)is equivalent toGroup.containedElement `Group.contained` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.contained` as `Equivalent`. This should never be done when the content can be identified properly, as once identification is lost, it is extremely difficult (and context dependent) to restore it again. Contained resources may have profiles and tags In their meta elements, but SHALL NOT have security labels.
Group.identifier (identifier)is equivalent toGroup.identifierElement `Group.identifier` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.identifier` as `Equivalent`.
Group.active (active)is equivalent toGroup.activeElement `Group.active` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.active` as `Equivalent`.
Group.type (type)is broader thanGroup.typeElement `Group.type` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.type` as `RelatedTo`. The mappings for `Group.type` do not allow expression of the necessary codes, per the bindings on the source and target. Group members SHALL be of the appropriate resource type (Patient for person or animal; or Practitioner, Device, Medication or Substance for the other types.).
Group.code (code)is equivalent toGroup.codeElement `Group.code` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.code` as `Equivalent`. This would generally be omitted for Person resources.
Group.name (name)is equivalent toGroup.nameElement `Group.name` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.name` as `Equivalent`. An externally-defined extension that has been mapped as the representation of FHIR R4B element `Group.name`: `http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/artifact-name`.
Group.quantity (quantity)is equivalent toGroup.quantityElement `Group.quantity` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.quantity` as `Equivalent`. Note that the quantity may be less than the number of members if some of the members are not active.
Group.managingEntity (managingEntity)is equivalent toGroup.managingEntityElement `Group.managingEntity` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.managingEntity` as `Equivalent`. This does not strictly align with ownership of a herd or flock, but may suffice to represent that relationship in simple cases. More complex cases will require an extension.
Group.characteristic (characteristic)is broader thanGroup.characteristicElement `Group.characteristic` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.characteristic` as `Equivalent`. All the identified characteristics must be true for an entity to a member of the group.
Group.characteristic.code (code)is equivalent toGroup.characteristic.codeElement `Group.characteristic.code` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.characteristic.code` as `Equivalent`.
Group.characteristic.value[x] (value[x])is equivalent toGroup.characteristic.value[x]Element `Group.characteristic.value[x]` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.characteristic.value[x]` as `Equivalent`. The target context `Group.characteristic.value[x]` is a choice-type element and cannot directly hold extensions. The context is moved up to parent element `Group.characteristic`. For Range, it means members of the group have a value that falls somewhere within the specified range.
Group.characteristic.exclude (exclude)is equivalent toGroup.characteristic.excludeElement `Group.characteristic.exclude` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.characteristic.exclude` as `Equivalent`. This is labeled as "Is Modifier" because applications cannot wrongly include excluded members as included or vice versa.
Group.characteristic.period (period)is equivalent toGroup.characteristic.periodElement `Group.characteristic.period` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.characteristic.period` as `Equivalent`.
Group.member (member)is broader thanGroup.memberElement `Group.member` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.member` as `Equivalent`.
Group.member.entity (entity)is broader thanGroup.member.entityElement `Group.member.entity` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.member.entity` as `SourceIsBroaderThanTarget`. The standard extension `alternate-reference` has been mapped as the representation of FHIR R4B element `Group.member.entity` with unmapped reference targets: Medication, Substance.
Group.member.period (period)is equivalent toGroup.member.periodElement `Group.member.period` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.member.period` as `Equivalent`.
Group.member.inactive (inactive)is equivalent toGroup.member.inactiveElement `Group.member.inactive` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.member.inactive` as `Equivalent`.

Source CodeRelationshipTarget CodeComment
Group.type (type)is equivalent toExtension (R4B: person | animal | practitioner | device | medication | substance additional codes)Element `Group.type` is mapped to FHIR R5 element `Group.type` as `RelatedTo`. The mappings for `Group.type` do not allow expression of the necessary codes, per the bindings on the source and target. Group members SHALL be of the appropriate resource type (Patient for person or animal; or Practitioner, Device, Medication or Substance for the other types.).

Group 3 Mapping from http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/Group|4.3.0 to R4B: Descriptive or actual (new)version: 0.1.0)

Source CodeRelationshipTarget CodeComment
Group.actual (actual)is broader thanExtension (R4B: Descriptive or actual (new))Element `Group.actual` has a context of Group based on following the parent source element upwards and mapping to `Group`. Element `Group.actual` has no mapping targets in FHIR R5. Typically, this is because the element has been added (is a new element).
