As specified by ISO 21090, a resource such as a web page, telephone number (voice, fax or some other resource mediated by
telecommunication equipment), e-mail address, etc, whose location and method of access are specified by a Uniform Resource
Locator (URL).
This data type flavor supports the logical representation of the NPfIT MIM Telecommunication Address (TEL) data type flavors.
NHS PDS and Data Model and Dictionary telecommunication address structures are represented more precislely by specialised
flavors of this data type.
The use and validTime (Low and High) may be used to represent the use and useablePeriod attributes within NPfIT MIM Telecommunication
Address (TEL) data type flavors. It should be noted, however, that the NPfIT MIM flavors misuse the useablePeriod attribute
to specify the period of validity of an address rather than using the validTime (Low and High) attributes.

Uri
|
1..1 |
As specified by ISO 21090, a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) specified according to IETF RFC 2396 and constrained to a URL
specified according to IETF RFCs 1738 and 2806.
The URI specifies the protocol and the contact point defined by that protocol for the resource.

TelecommunicationAddressUse
|
0..* |
As ISO 21090, one or more codes advising a system or user which telecommunication address in a set of like addresses to select
for a given telecommunication need. A telecommunication address may have a number of specified uses, e.g. home and
work telephone number.
|
|
useablePeriod
|
QSET_TS
|
0..1 |
As ISO 21090, the periods of time during which the telecommunication address can be used.
For a telephone number, this may indicate the time of day during which the party can be reached on that number.
For a web address, it may specify a time range in which the web content is promised to be available under the given address.
Note that this attribute does not specify the overall period of validity of the telecommunication address. A valid telephone
number, for example, might still only be useable during certain periods, e.g. week days between 09:00AM and 5:00PM.
