Organization (Resource) or Reference by Organization Identity

In message paradigms, especially HL7 v2 laboratory order (OML_O21/ORM_O01) and unsolicitied observations (ORU_R01) it is common to use the XON (Extended Composite Name and Identification Number for Organisations). The FHIR equivalent to this datatype is FHIR Reference

For example:

HL7 v2 XON

MANCHESTER UNIVERSITY NHS FOUNDATION TRUST^^R0A^^^ODS

HL7 FHIR Reference

{
    "reference" : "Organization/ABCDE",
    "type" : "Organization",
    "identifier" : {
      "system" : "https://fhir.nhs.uk/Id/ods-organization-code",
      "value" : "R0A"
    },
    "display" : "MANCHESTER UNIVERSITY NHS FOUNDATION TRUST"
}

FHIR Reference introduces a reference to a detailed version of Organisation which additional elements.

This reference may be able to point to Care Service Directory services provided by NHS England Organisation Data Terminology - FHIR API (or alternatively downloaded from NHS England Organisation Data Service - CSV Downloads, therefore it is proposed

Reference by Organization Identity only

and so continuing conventions used in HL7 v2, i.e. no Organization resources will be present in FHIR Messaging.
