Properties

This code system defines the following properties for its concepts

NameCodeURITypeDescription
comment comment http://hl7.org/fhir/concept-properties#comment string A string that provides additional detail pertinent to the use or understanding of the concept
effectiveDate effectiveDate http://hl7.org/fhir/concept-properties#effectiveDate dateTime The date at which the concept status was last changed
status status http://hl7.org/fhir/concept-properties#status code A code that indicates the status of the concept. Typical values are active, experimental, deprecated, and retired
Inactive inactive http://hl7.org/fhir/concept-properties#inactive boolean True if the concept is not considered active - e.g. not a valid concept any more. Property type is boolean, default value is false. Note that the status property may also be used to indicate that a concept is inactive
