OPERATION: Concept Translation
Translate a code from one value set to another, based on the existing value set and concept maps resources, and/or other additional knowledge available to the server. || One (and only one) of the in parameters (code, coding, codeableConcept) must be provided, to identify the code that is to be translated. || The outcome is an operationOutcome with hints, warnings, or errors, or the translated code in an extension
