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 Definition 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) SystemSearchComparator
