#### Cross Version Analysis

This is an R4 IG. None of the features it uses are changed in R4B, so it can be used as is with R4B systems. Packages for both R4 (ihe.iti.npfs.r4) and R4B (ihe.iti.npfs.r4b) are available.

Package hl7.fhir.uv.extensions.r4#1.0.0 This IG defines the global extensions - the ones defined for everyone. These extensions are always in scope wherever FHIR is being used (built Sun, Mar 26, 2023 08:46+1100+11:00)

Package ihe.formatcode.fhir#1.1.1 Implementation Guide for IHE defined FormatCode vocabulary. (built Wed, Feb 14, 2024 09:36-0600-06:00)

Package ihe.iti.balp#1.1.3 The Basic Audit Log Patterns (BALP) Implementation Guide is a Content Profile that defines some basic and reusable AuditEvent patterns. This includes basic audit log profiles for FHIR RESTful operations to be used when there is not a more specific audit event defined. A focus is enabling Privacy centric AuditEvent logs that hold well formed indication of the Patient when they are the subject of the activity being recorded in the log. Where a more specific audit event can be defined it should be derived off of these basic patterns. (built Wed, Feb 14, 2024 15:23-0600-06:00)
