Observations are often coded in multiple code systems.
- LOINC
- or SNOMED
-and/or the source system may provides its own "local" code, which
may be less or more granular than LOINC.
In this example there is only LOINC
In FHIR, units may be represented twice. Once in the
agreed human representation, and once in a coded form.
In this example the UCUM unit is provided but no human representation since
this is often not displayed
