This Code system is used in the following value sets:

  • SlicingRules (How slices are interpreted when evaluating an instance.)

4.2.11.45.1 Content

4.2.11.45.2 SlicingRules

How slices are interpreted when evaluating an instance.

This code system http://hl7.org/fhir/resource-slicing-rules defines the following codes:

CodeDisplayDefinition
closed ClosedNo additional content is allowed other than that described by the slices in this profile.
open OpenAdditional content is allowed anywhere in the list.
openAtEnd Open at EndAdditional content is allowed, but only at the end of the list. Note that using this requires that the slices be ordered, which makes it hard to share uses. This should only be done where absolutely required.

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

LevelA few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies
SourceThe source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
CodeThe code (used as the code in the resource instance)
DisplayThe 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
