      <p>OPERATION: Value Set based Validation</p>
      <div>
        <p>Validate that a coded value is in the set of codes allowed by a value set.   If the operation
           is not called at the instance level, one of the in parameters &quot;identifier&quot; or
           &quot;valueset&quot; must be provided.  One (and only one) of the in parameters (code,
           coding, codeableConcept) must be provided.  The operation returns a result (true / false),
           an error message, and the recommended display for the code</p>
