0. Extension
Definition | Legal status/situation at admission. This extension may be used for representing the basis on which the patient is staying in a healthcare organisation. This can be either voluntary or involuntary. A patient can also receive healthcare based on a forensic status. (voluntary, involuntary, admission by legal authority). Optional Extension Element - found in all resources.

Invariants | ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())) ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both (extension.exists() != value.exists())
2. Extension.extension
Definition | An Extension 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 managable, 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.
