This is the CodeSystem that contains all the codes in alternative code kind (http://hl7.org/fhir/codesystem-altcode-kind) and alternative code kind code system (http://hl7.org/fhir/codesystem-altcode-kind). E.g. what you have to deal with if you get resources containing codes in either of them
This code system http://hl7.org/fhir/comparison/CodeSystem/3099ac23-0942-4450-b678-d1831a38da6f-17
defines codes, but no codes are represented here
