# QICore Organization - QI-Core Implementation Guide v8.0.0-ballot

## Resource Profile: QICore Organization 

 
Profile of Organization for decision support/quality metrics. Defines the core set of elements and extensions for quality rule and measure authors. 

"Must Have", "QI Elements" and "primary code path" are defined in the
[QI-Core Must Support section](index.md#mustsupport-flag).

**Must Have:**
* active: Whether the organization's record is still in active use
* name: Name used for the organization

**QI Elements:**
* identifier.use: (QI) usual | official | temp | secondary | old (If known)
* identifier.value: (QI) The value that is unique
* identifier(ein): (QI) Employer Identification Number
* identifier(ccn): (QI) CMS Certification Number
* type: (QI) Kind of organization

**Primary code path:**type

(PCPath) This element is the primary code path for this resource
