A code that defines the signature of the primary or sole author of a health information document.

Fixed value: Verification Signature

A mime type that indicates the technical format of the signature.

Fixed value: JSON Digital Signature

A signature along with supporting context. The signature may be a digital signature that is cryptographic in nature, or some other signature acceptable to the domain. This other signature may be as simple as a graphical image representing a hand-written signature, or a signature ceremony Different signature approaches have different utilities.

The elements of the Signature Resource are for ease of access of these elements. For digital signatures (Xml DigSig, JWS), the non-repudiation proof comes from the Signature validation, which includes validation of the referenced objects (e.g. Resources) (a.k.a., Content) in the XML-Signature Detached form.

A code that defines the signature of the primary or sole author of a health information document.

Fixed value: Verification Signature

Examples include attesting to: authorship, correct transcription, and witness of specific event. Also known as a "Commitment Type Indication".

An indication of the reason that an entity signed the object.

When the digital signature was signed.

This should agree with the information in the signature.

A reference to an application-usable description of the identity that signed (e.g. the signature used their private key).

This should agree with the information in the signature.

A reference to an application-usable description of the identity that is represented by the signature.

The party that can't sign. For example a child.

used when the signature is on behalf of a non-signer.

A mime type that indicates the technical format of the target resources signed by the signature.

"xml", "json" and "ttl" are allowed, which describe the simple encodings described in the specification (and imply appropriate bundle support). Otherwise, mime types are legal here.

A mime type that indicates the technical format of the signature.

Fixed value: JSON Digital Signature

The mime type of an attachment. Any valid mime type is allowed.

The base64 encoding of the Signature content. When signature is not recorded electronically this element would be empty.

Where the signature type is an XML DigSig, the signed content is a FHIR Resource(s), the signature is of the XML form of the Resource(s) using XML-Signature (XMLDIG) "Detached Signature" form.

Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. 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.

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.
