Comments

In some markets, the combination of a plan ID and a group ID are needed to uniquely identify an InsurancePlan. For example, if a single plan (Bronze) is offered to two employer groups (Boilermakers and Aviation), you would represent that using two InsurancePlan resources, as shown below:

InsurancePlan.identifier  0..*  (Boilermakers)   InsurancePlan/bm
     [0].value = 1234   (bronze plan)
     [0].type = Plan
     [0].system = https://insurance-payer.com/plan-numbers

     [1].value = Boilermakers
     [1].type = Group
     [1].system = https:// insurance-payer.com /group-numbers
InsurancePlan.identifier  0..*  (Aviation)   InsurancePlan/av
     [0].value = 1234  (bronze plan)
