  "description" : "This value set includes all HGNC Codes, which includes multiple code systems. The preferred system URL is http://www.genenames.org per the HL7 Terminology (THO) NamingSystem definition (https://terminology.hl7.org/NamingSystem-v3-hgnc.html). Gene IDs are used as CodeableConcepts, which must be sent with the HGNC gene ID including the prefix 'HGNC:' as the code and the HGNC 'gene symbol' as display. CAUTION: HGNC also indexes gene groups by numeric ID (without a prefix), and older systems may send HGNC gene IDs without the prefix, so care must be taken to confirm alignment. The genegroup code system is separately included to draw attention to this ambiguity and potential error.",
