Preferred number in ISO II datatype

I was asking myself the question of how to indicate a preferred number (NL:voorkeursnummer) for de id values of a Patient. And of course there is an answer for that:
"II.displayable: Specifies if the identifier is intended for human display and data entry (displayable = true) as opposed to pure machine interoperation (displayable = false)."
