Local communities or systems must never use such reserved identifiers based on bilateral negotiations.\n\nHL7 reserved identifiers are strings that consist only of (US-ASCII) letters, digits and hyphens, where the first character must be a letter. HL7 may assign these reserved identifiers as mnemonic identifiers for major concepts of interest to HL7.",
