Identifier systems

The following identifier systems are defined using a NamingSystem resource and form part of this implementation guide.

Identifier systems are for use in the system element of the Identifier data type. If a URI is defined here, it SHALL be used in preference to any other identifying mechanism. If an identifier system is not listed here, the correct URI may be determined by working through the following list, in order:

  • HL7 AU Base Implementation Guide for the associated Identifier profile
  • the HL7 OID Registry or International OID Registry
  • the documentation associated with the identifier
  • consulting the owner of the identifier
  • requesting advice from the Australian Digital Health Agency
