Use Context: Any

URL for this extension:

http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/valueset-reference

Status: draft. Extension maintained by: HL7

A logical reference (e.g. a reference to ValueSet.url) that identifies the value set/version that identifies the set of possible coded values this coding was chosen from or constrained by.

Comment:

If this extension is used with an extensible binding, and the concept comes from outside the bound valueset, the value set SHALL be different from the bound valueset.

Context of Use: Use on Element ID Coding
