Code URL Description Type
abstract True if an element is considered 'abstract' - that is in otherwords, the code is not for use as a real concept boolean

This code system http://hl7.org/fhir/referencerange-meaning http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/referencerange-meaning defines the following codes:

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 are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies 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
