Topic: Organization Logos

Wondering if anyone else has thought to include logos in their Directories for Organizations.
If so, how would you feel about using this extension that I was going to suggest

This could be used on Organization, Location, HealthcareService, and even other things like Medications, Devices
I’d use a separate extension for the thumbnail or photo of the item (which would be more appropriate for Locations)

<extension url=”http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/logo”/>
    <valueAttachment>
        <url value=”http://blah.blah/logo.gif”/>
    </valueAttachment>
</extension>

<extension url=”http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/logo”/>
    <valueAttachment>
        <contentType value=”image/gif”/>
        <data value=”R0lGODlhEwARAPcAAAAAAAAA/+9aAO+1AP/WAP/eAP …”/>
    </valueAttachment>
</extension>

isn't that one extension?

Brian Postlethwaite (Jul 19 2018 at 12:24):

Sorry yes, 2 examples of the one extension. (showing the 2 likely usages)

@Brian Postlethwaite did this idea ever go anywhere? I've been thinking about logos a bit lately, but also about things like letterhead templates, and other media that may be associated with an Organization or a Practitioner
