Topic: FHIR Location and GS1 Global Location Number

Anyone using GS1 GLN (GLN stands for Global Location Number) standard as identifier for physical locations? We are looking to have a common identifier for physical locations in hospitals that can be used both for clinical logistics as well as service logistics and supplychain? I know the NHS works with GS1 GLN in that way, but I am not aware that they have implemented APIs with the FHIR location resource in such a context. Any information or experiences would be greatly appreciated.

I would ask @Jesper Haffgaard - I might know of a large installation in DK that involves both FHIR and GS1
