public class Element
extends Base
implements org.hl7.fhir.utilities.NamedItemList.NamedItem

This class represents the underlying reference model of FHIR A resource is nothing but a set of elements, where every element has a name, maybe a stated type, maybe an id, and either a value or child elements (one or the other, but not both or neither)
