      This code system http://hl7.org/fhir/codesystem-hierarchy-meaning defines the following
         codes:
      
        
          
            
          
          
            
          
          
            
          
        
        
          grouped-by
            
          
          
          No particular relationship between the concepts can be assumed, except what can be determined
             by inspection of the definitions of the elements (possible reasons to use this: importing
             from a source where this is not defined, or where various parts of the hierarchy have
             different meanings).
        
        
          is-a
            
          
          
          A hierarchy where the child concepts have an IS-A relationship with the parents - that
             is, all the properties of the parent are also true for its child concepts. Not that is-a
             is a property of the concepts, so additional subsumption relationships may be defined
             using properties or the [subsumes](extension-codesystem-subsumes.html) extension.
        
        
          part-of
            
          
          
          
        
        
          classified-with
            
          
          
          Child concepts in the hierarchy may have only one parent, and there is a presumption that
             the code system is a &quot;closed world&quot; meaning all things must be in the hierarchy.
             This results in concepts such as &quot;not otherwise classified.&quot;.
        
      
    
  
  
    
  
  
    
  
  
    
  
  
    
  
  
  
    
    
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
    
      
      
    
    
      
      
    
  
  
  
  
  
  
    
    
    No particular relationship between the concepts can be assumed, except what can be determined
     by inspection of the definitions of the elements (possible reasons to use this: importing
     from a source where this is not defined, or where various parts of the hierarchy have
     different meanings).
