I see that the PDEX PlanNet IG references some extension definitions from VHDir, but does not re-package them.
Is there a list somewhere of all VHDir conformance resources that are reference by PlanNet?
I'm trying to decide whether to package them together for our server, or whether I should package VHDir separately.

based on a quick analysis, it looks like its just these:

http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/vhdir/StructureDefinition/accessibility

http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/vhdir/StructureDefinition/contactpoint-availabletime

Saul pointed out that these extensions have bindings to valuesets (and codesystems) from VHDir as well, although from what I can tell the strength of those bindings is always "example"...which we often just ignore.

of more concern to me right now is that they reference entire VHDir profiles as their reference targets.

for example, the endpoint-reference extension is of type Reference and has a targetProfile of:

                "type": [
                    {
                        "code": "Reference",
                        "targetProfile": [
                            "http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/vhdir/StructureDefinition/vhdir-endpoint"
                        ]
                    }
                ],

similarly:

  • the location-reference extension refers to targetProfile http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/vhdir/StructureDefinition/vhdir-endpoint
  • the newpatients extension refers to targetProfile http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/vhdir/StructureDefinition/vhdir-network
  • the practitioner-qualification extension refers to targetProfile http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/vhdir/StructureDefinition/vhdir-location; and
  • the qualification extension refers to targetProfiles http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/vhdir/StructureDefinition/vhdir-location and http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/vhdir/StructureDefinition/vhdir-organization

and I'm assuming those structure definitions pull in even more.
I don't think any of those are included in the sample data, but based on this, I'm leaning toward packaging the entire VHDir package....so now the question becomes "which version"?
