Which form of Indian status documentation the patient presented (SCIS, CIS, or TCRD). Rides on the Indian registration number identifier — the same idiom as a health card's version-code extension — because the document form qualifies the presented credential, while the identifier's type stays the identifier's own concern. A recorded expiry on that identifier never implies a registration-status change: a lapsed card does not mean the patient is unregistered.

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.
Comments
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.
Source of the definition for the extension code - a logical name or a URL.
Comments
The definition may point directly to a computable or human-readable definition of the extensibility codes, or it may be a logical URI as declared in some other specification. The definition SHALL be a URI for the Structure Definition defining the extension.
