Level System Code Display Definition Canonical Mapping for "RequestStatus"
1 http://hl7.org/fhir/request-status    draft Draft The request has been created but is not yet complete or ready for action action. ~ draft
1 http://hl7.org/fhir/request-status    active Active The request is in force and ready to be acted upon upon. ~ active
1 suspended http://hl7.org/fhir/request-status    on-hold Suspended On Hold The authorization/request request (and any implicit authorization to act act) has been temporarily withdrawn but is expected to resume in the future future. ~ suspended
1 cancelled http://hl7.org/fhir/request-status    entered-in-error Entered in Error This request should never have existed and should be considered 'void'. (It is possible that real-world decisions were based on it. If real-world activity has occurred, the status should be "revoked" rather than "entered-in-error".). ~ error
Cancelled 1 http://hl7.org/fhir/request-status    ended The authorization/request Ended This request is no longer to act be acted upon. This status does not differentiate what degree of action (if any) has already been terminated prior to the full completion of undertaken against the intended actions. No further activity should occur. request. ~ ended
2 http://hl7.org/fhir/request-status      completed Completed Activity against The activity described by the request has been sufficiently completed to the satisfaction of the requester fully performed. No further activity will occur. ~ complete
2 entered-in-error http://hl7.org/fhir/request-status      revoked Entered in Error Revoked This electronic record should never have existed, though it is possible that real-world decisions were based on it. (If real-world activity The request (and any implicit authorization to act) has occurred, been terminated prior to the status known full completion of the intended actions. No further activity should be "cancelled" rather than "entered-in-error".) occur. ~ failed
1 http://hl7.org/fhir/request-status    unknown Unknown The authoring authoring/source system does not know which of the status values currently applies for this request. Note: This concept is not to be used for "other" . One "other" - one of the listed statuses is presumed to apply, but the authoring/source system creating the request doesn't know. does not know which. ~ unknown

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Level Lvl A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes For value sets, levels are under other codes, and imply that the mostly used to organize codes for user convenience, but may follow code they are under also applies 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
