4.0.0-ballot - STU 4 ballot International flag

Structured Data Capture, published by HL7 International / FHIR Infrastructure. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 4.0.0-ballot built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/HL7/sdc/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

Resource Profile: SDC Code System

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/sdc/StructureDefinition/sdc-codesystem Version: 4.0.0-ballot

Other Identifiers: OID:2.16.840.1.113883.4.642.40.17.42.6

Defines how CodeSystem is used to reflect code lists found in data element defintions and form definitions to be used within the ONC's Structured Data Capture standard.

Scope and Usage

Code systems are referenced by ValueSets to define possible answer choices in a re-useable cross-questionnaire (and other data structure) manner. Codes might be drawn from standard international terminologies like LOINC or SNOMED CT or from regional code systems for drugs, billing codes, etc. The use of standardized codes is useful when data needs to be populated into the questionnaire or extracted from the questionnaire for other uses. It is also helpful when the set of possibilities is highly dynamic - for example drug codes where the set of available codes might change daily or weekly.

This profile sets expectations for use of the CodeSystem resource when used as a source for answers to questions in a Questionnaire. It identifies which core elements and extensions must be supported and highlights other elements that, while not required, may be relevant to the Questionnaire use-case.
