FHIR SearchParameter resource

Updated

SearchParameter is the FHIR resource that defines a search parameter: its name, the resource types it applies to, its type (token, date, reference and so on) and the FHIRPath expression that extracts the indexed value.

The base standard ships hundreds of them, implementation guides add custom ones, and a server lists the ones it supports in its CapabilityStatement.
