Orders and Observations Work Group | Maturity Level: 5 | Normative | Use Context: Any |
Normative Candidate Note: This page is candidate normative content for R4 in the Observation Package. Once normative, it will lose it's Maturity Level, and breaking changes will no longer be made.
This is a value set defined by the FHIR project.

All codes from system http://hl7.org/fhir/data-absent-reason
Lvl | Code | Display | Definition |
0 | unknown | Unknown | The value is expected to exist but is not known. |
1 | asked-unknown | Asked But Unknown | The source was asked but does not know the value. |
1 | temp-unknown | Temporarily Unknown | There is reason to expect (from the workflow) that the value may become known. |
1 | not-asked | Not Asked | The workflow didn't lead to this value being known. |
1 | asked-declined | Asked But Declined | The source was asked but declined to answer. |
0 | masked | Masked | The information is not available due to security, privacy or related reasons. |
0 | not-applicable | Not Applicable | There is no proper value for this element (e.g. last menstrual period for a male) |
0 | unsupported | Unsupported | The source system wasn't capable of supporting this element. |
0 | as-text | As Text | The content of the data is represented in the resource narrative. |
0 | error | Error | Some system or workflow process error means that the information is not available. |
1 | not-a-number | Not a Number (NaN) | The numeric value is undefined or unrepresentable due to a floating point processing error. |
1 | negative-infinity | Negative Infinity (NINF) | The numeric value is excessively low and unrepresentable due to a floating point processing error. |
1 | positive-infinity | Positive Infinity (PINF) | The numeric value is excessively high and unrepresentable due to a floating point processing error. |
0 | not-performed | Not Performed | The value is not available because the observation procedure (test, etc.) was not performed. |
0 | not-permitted | Not Permitted | The value is not permitted in this context (e.g. due to profiles, or the base data types) |

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 |
