1.14.2.1.324 Value Set for codes in http://hl7.org/fhir/link-type

This is a value set defined by the FHIR project.

Summary

Code System URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/link-type
Value Set URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/vs/link-type
Definition: The type of link between this patient resource and another patient resource.

Formal value Set definition : XML or JSON .

This value set defines its own codes:

1.14.2.1.324.1 LinkType

The type of link between this patient resource and another patient resource.

This value set defines its own terms in the system http://hl7.org/fhir/link-type

Code Display Definition
replace The patient resource containing this link must no longer be used. The link points forward to another patient resource that must be used in lieu of the patient resource that contains the link.
refer The patient resource containing this link is in use and valid but not considered the main source of information about a patient. The link points forward to another patient resource that should be consulted to retrieve additional patient information.
seealso The patient resource containing this link is in use and valid, but points to another patient resource that is known to contain data about the same person. Data in this resource might overlap or contradict information found in the other patient resource. This link does not indicate any relative importance of the resources concerned, and both should be regarded as equally valid.

These codes are used in the following places:

OIDs

Code System URL: 324
Value Set URL: 2.16.840.1.113883.4.642.2.324
Note: these OIDs are not used in FHIR, but may be used in v3, or OID based terminology systems

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Level 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
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)
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

In addition, this page will include mappings to HL7 v2 or HL7 v3 code where these have been defined.
