Package hl7.fhir.uv.extensions.r5#5.3.0 This IG defines the global extensions - the ones defined for everyone. These extensions are always in scope wherever FHIR is being used (built Sat, May 16, 2026 18:32+1000+10:00)

Package hl7.fhir.uv.tools.r5#1.1.2 This IG defines the extensions that the tools use internally. Some of these extensions are content that are being evaluated for elevation into the main spec, and others are tooling concerns (built Tue, Mar 24, 2026 11:13+1100+11:00)
