System Code Display Definition
http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/list-order    user icon Sorted by User The list was sorted by a user. The criteria the user used are not specified.
http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/list-order    system icon Sorted by System The list was sorted by the system. The criteria the user used are not specified; define additional codes to specify a particular order (or use other defined codes).
http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/list-order    event-date icon Sorted by Event Date The list is sorted by the data of the event. This can be used when the list has items which are dates with past or future events.
http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/list-order    entry-date icon Sorted by Item Date The list is sorted by the date the item was added to the list. Note that the date added to the list is not explicit in the list itself.
http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/list-order    priority icon Sorted by Priority The list is sorted by priority. The exact method in which priority has been determined is not specified.
http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/list-order    alphabetic icon Sorted Alphabetically The list is sorted alphabetically by an unspecified property of the items in the list.
http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/list-order    category icon Sorted by Category The list is sorted categorically by an unspecified property of the items in the list.
http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/list-order    patient icon Sorted by Patient The list is sorted by patient, with items for each patient grouped together.
http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/list-order    publication-date icon Sorted by Publication Date The list is sorted by the date the item was published or made publicly available. This is distinct from when an event occurred (event-date) or when the item was added to the list (entry-date).

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
