      <h2>List Empty Reasons</h2>
      <p>General reasons for a list to be empty. Reasons are either related to a summary list (i.e.
         problem or medication list) or to a workflow related list (i.e. consultation list)</p>
      <p>This value set has an inline code system http://hl7.org/fhir/list-empty-reason, which
         defines the following codes:</p>

             (NKA - nil known allergies)  * For medications: the patient or patient's agent/guardian
             has asserted that the patient is known to be taking no medications  * For diagnoses, problems
             and procedures: the patient or patient's agent/guardian has asserted that there is no
             known event to record.</td>
