ValueSet
Expansion performed internally based on codesystem Code System Content Mode v6.0.0-ballot3 (CodeSystem)
This value set contains 5 concepts
| System | Code | Display | Definition |
http://hl7.org/fhir/codesystem-content-mode |
not-present | Not Present | None of the concepts defined by the code system are included in the code system resource. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/codesystem-content-mode |
example | Example | A subset of the valid externally defined concepts are included in the code system resource. There is no specific purpose or documented intent other than for illustrative purposes. This example content mode should not be used if the content is better represented in a fragment. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/codesystem-content-mode |
fragment | Fragment | A subset of the code system concepts that are included in the code system resource. This is a curated subset released for a specific purpose. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/codesystem-content-mode |
complete | Complete | All the concepts defined by the code system are included in the code system resource. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/codesystem-content-mode |
supplement | Supplement | The resource doesn't define any new concepts; it just provides additional designations and properties to another code system. |
See the full registry of value sets defined as part of FHIR.
Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
| Lvl | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. For value sets, levels are mostly used to organize codes for user convenience, but may follow code system hierarchy - see Code System for further information |
| Source | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
| Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract') |
| Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
| Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept |
| Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code |
