    Description

      The spec defines a search parameter `Group-characteristic-value` of type token, with an expression of `Group.characteristic` and components like this:

      [
        {
          "definition": "http://hl7.org/fhir/SearchParameter/Group-characteristic",
          "expression": "code"
        },
        {
          "definition": "http://hl7.org/fhir/SearchParameter/Group-value",
          "expression": "value"
        }
      ]
      

      This Group-value expression can result in any of the following types:

      • CodeableConcept
      • boolean
      • Quantity
      • Range
      • Reference

       

      However, the http://hl7.org/fhir/SearchParameter/Group-value search parameter is of type token.

      The component expression for the Group-value component should be updated to:

      (value as CodeableConcept) | (value as boolean)
      

       

      See https://chat.fhir.org/#narrow/stream/179166-implementers/topic/Composite.20search.20parameter.20expressions for discussion.
