Topic: identifier string format with URI

Hello, what is the standard format for concatenating identifier value with its system URI? Is it [system_uri]#[value] or [uri]:[value]? Thanks!

What is your objective for the concatenation?
Michele Mottini (Jul 07 2020 at 14:43):
In a search parameter you use the pipe: [system_uri]|[value]

it's to use in a custom token to pass patient identifier as a string

then we don't really have an opinion. I typically use # if the reference is into a single document (or logically would be), or else |. But we certainly don't have across the board consistency on that approach nor we do make any rule like that
