currently we only have sampleIdentifier as a string. We don't have any property in the metadata to link to alternate identifiers for sample.

Options:

alternateIdentifier field
multiple values for sampleIdentifier, with a schemeName or some other property to scope the authority or context for that identifier
have a separate identifeir map resource that correlates related identifeirs.
