public class Signature
extends Type
implements org.hl7.fhir.instance.model.api.ICompositeType
```
A signature along with supporting context. The signature may be a digital signature that is cryptographic in nature, or some other signature acceptable to the domain. This other signature may be as simple as a graphical image representing a hand-written signature, or a signature ceremony Different signature approaches have different utilities.
