Official URL : http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/encounter-special-courtesy This value set defines a set of codes that can be used to indicate special courtesies provided to the patient. Version : 5.0.0

OID: Flags : 2.16.840.1.113883.4.642.3.252 (for OID based terminology systems) Source Resource XML / JSON : 2.16.840.1.113883.4.642.3.252

This value set is used in the following places:

This value set defines a set of codes that can be used to indicate special courtesies provided to the patient.


This value set includes codes based on the following rules:

  • Include these codes as defined in http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-EncounterSpecialCourtesy icon
    Code Display Definition
    EXT icon extended courtesy
    NRM icon normal courtesy
    PRF icon professional courtesy
    STF icon staff Courtesies extended to the staff of the entity providing service.
    VIP icon very important person
  • Include these codes as defined in http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-NullFlavor icon
    Code Display Definition
    UNK icon unknown **Description:**A proper value is applicable, but not known.

    **Usage Notes**: This means the actual value is not known. If the only thing that is unknown is how to properly express the value in the necessary constraints (value set, datatype, etc.), then the OTH or UNC flavor should be used. No properties should be included for a datatype with this property unless:

    1. Those properties themselves directly translate to a semantic of "unknown". (E.g. a local code sent as a translation that conveys 'unknown')
    2. Those properties further qualify the nature of what is unknown. (E.g. specifying a use code of "H" and a URL prefix of "tel:" to convey that it is the home phone number that is unknown.)

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 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)
Code The code (used as the code in the resource instance). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract')
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
