In regards to the HealthcareService how different will be the telecome extension contact-availabletime and the element availabletime (Backbone element).
In what context will the availabletime element be used as healthcareService in itself is just a service and not some entity.

Sorry, I didn't answer this in the right stream. @Chetana Nayyar Confusing.
Saul Kravitz said:
Contact-availabletime is about the contact.
AvailableTIme is about the service itself.
@Chetana Nayyar asked:
In regards to a HealthcareService for example the service type mentions:
328 Eating Disorder Eating Disorder
331 Employment And Train Employment And Training
344 Food Food
345 Food Vouchers Food Vouchers
352 Grief Counselling Grief Counselling
366 Household Items Household Items
400 Pain Pain
409 Postnatal
in such scenarios how is AvailableTime valid at service level?
Saul Kravitz (Apr 15 2021 at 19:51):
@Chetana Nayyar The HealthcareService describes a service. There are three codes that characterize the service: category, type (the one you mention above) and specialty. Irrespective of the service, the profile provides the fields to support a description of when the service itself is available, and, independently, when the contact point is available.
So, if the service is a pain clinic, one might expect that the category would be 'outpat', the type might be 'pain', and the specialty could be Pain Medicine (Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation) Physician. They might have a 24 hour contact phone number (contact-availabletime) but the clinic might be open only 2-4pm on Wednesdays.
