2. Goal.implicitRules
Definition

A reference to a set of rules that were followed when the resource was constructed, and which must be understood when processing the content. Often, this is a reference to an implementation guide that defines the special rules along with other profiles etc.

ShortA set of rules under which this content was created
Comments

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.

Comments

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.

Definition

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.

Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).

ShortExtensions that cannot be ignored

    20. Goal.description.extension:EnclosedPreconditionExtension
    Slice NameEnclosedPreconditionExtension
    Definition

    The Enclosed Precondition Extension allows for a precondition to be applied to an advance directive observation or goal. When applied to Goal instance, the stated goal only applies if the precondition is met. For example, the precondition 'If I am so sick or seriously injured that I cannot express my own medical treatment preferences' could be applied to the patient's goal of 'Avoiding prolonged dependence on machines'. When applied to an Observation instance, it is important to note that the precondition applies only to the preference expressed within the observation, not to the observation itself, since the act of recording the preference as an observation has already been done. For example, the precondition 'If I am nearing end of life' could be applied to the preference 'Please attempt to notify someone from my religion at the following number...' recorded within an observation.

    ShortEnclosed Precondition
    Comments

    Contextual Value contains the components that make up the Actual Value for use by systems for rendering or other purposes. It must not include additional information. Many advance directive and similar forms provide a situation or context for which an individual can provide one or more responses either through a check box or free text responses. This extension enables systems to capture the context separate from the associated responses. For example, a form may present a situation like: ‘If I have a permanent condition where other people must help me with my daily needs (for example, eating, bathing, toileting)’, for which the person may provide responses. Separating these values can help with rendering and use of the information.

      May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.

      Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).

      There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions.

      Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions.

      Comments

      This is a business identifier, not a resource identifier (see discussion). It is best practice for the identifier to only appear on a single resource instance, however business practices may occasionally dictate that multiple resource instances with the same identifier can exist - possibly even with different resource types. For example, multiple Patient and a Person resource instance might share the same social insurance number.

              The Enclosed Precondition Extension allows for a precondition to be applied to an advance directive observation or goal. When applied to Goal instance, the stated goal only applies if the precondition is met. For example, the precondition 'If I am so sick or seriously injured that I cannot express my own medical treatment preferences' could be applied to the patient's goal of 'Avoiding prolonged dependence on machines'. When applied to an Observation instance, it is important to note that the precondition applies only to the preference expressed within the observation, not to the observation itself, since the act of recording the preference as an observation has already been done. For example, the precondition 'If I am nearing end of life' could be applied to the preference 'Please attempt to notify someone from my religion at the following number...' recorded within an observation.

              Comments

              Contextual Value contains the components that make up the Actual Value for use by systems for rendering or other purposes. It must not include additional information. Many advance directive and similar forms provide a situation or context for which an individual can provide one or more responses either through a check box or free text responses. This extension enables systems to capture the context separate from the associated responses. For example, a form may present a situation like: ‘If I have a permanent condition where other people must help me with my daily needs (for example, eating, bathing, toileting)’, for which the person may provide responses. Separating these values can help with rendering and use of the information.

              There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.

              May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element and that modifies the understanding of the element in which it is contained and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.

              Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).

              Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions.

              The goal outcome is independent of the outcome of the related activities. For example, if the Goal is to achieve a target body weight of 150 lb and a care plan activity is defined to diet, then the care plan’s activity outcome could be calories consumed whereas goal outcome is an observation for the actual body weight measured.
