This is the sample hl7message when i converted to fhir, it doesn't contain the PID13.7 detail which is the phone number.

Hmmm....looking at the template it is built on the expectation that email address and phone number are different entries in the repeating PID.13 field.

So pulling the PID.13 field apart into two repetitions one for email address and another for the phone number should give you what you're looking for.

If you are unable to pre-process your HL7 input message to (correctly) put the email address and phone number into separate repetitions - then you are stuck with having to customize:

1. resource/Patient.yml will need to be adjusted to make it generate two telecom fields from the single PID.13 entry

2. You will probably have to heavily customize datatype/ContactPoint.yml to get your desired output.
