As new versions of the code systems used by the value set are released, the contents of this expansion will need to be updated to incorporate newly defined codes that meet the value set intent. The complete expansion of the ValueSet is included, but not necessarily the computable definition. An executable value set is intended for use in environments that are not expected to have access to a terminology server capable of expanding the value set, so the expansion is communicated as part of the ValueSet. |
