CAPCollege of American Pathologist Accreditation NumberAllows for the ability to designate organization identifier as a "CAP" assigned number (for labs)
CLIAClinical Laboratory Improvement AmendmentsClinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments. Allows for the ability to designate organization identifier as a "CLIA" assigned number (for labs)
CLIPClinical laboratory Improvement ProgramClinical laboratory Improvement Program. Allows for the ability to designate organization identifier as a "CLIP" assigned number (for labs).  Used by US Department of Defense.
DNSDomain Name SystemAn Internet host name, in accordance with RFC 1035; or an IP address. Either in ASCII or as integers, with periods between components ("dotted" notation).
EUI64IEEE 64-bit Extended Unique IdentifierIEEE 64-bit Extended Unique Identifier is comprised of a 24-bit company identifier and a 40-bit instance identifier. The value shall be formatted as 16 ASCII HEX digits, for example, “AABBCC1122334455”. The 24-bit company identifier, formally known as Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI-24), is guaranteed to be globally unique. The 40-bit extensions are assigned by manufacturers. This identifier is often used in equipment interfaces (e.g., “MAC” address format for IPv4 & IPv6). [See http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/tutorials/EUI64.html for a detailed explanation of the format.]
GUIDglobally unique identifierSame as UUID.

NPIUS National Provider IdentifierAllows for the ability to designate organization identifier as a "NPI" assigned number (lab, any medical provider, can be a person or an organization)
RandomRandomUsually a base64 encoded string of random bits.<p>Note: Random IDs are typically used for instance identifiers, rather than an identifier of an Assigning Authority that issues instance identifiers

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Level A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies
Source The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
Code The code (used as the code in the resource instance)
Display The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
Definition An explanation of the meaning of the concept
Comments Additional notes about how to use the code
