  • ValueSet: Risk Probability (Codes representing the likelihood of a particular outcome in a risk assessment.)

Codes representing the likelihood of a particular outcome in a risk assessment.

CodeDisplayDefinition
negligible Negligible likelihoodThe specified outcome is exceptionally unlikely.
low Low likelihoodThe specified outcome is possible but unlikely.
moderate Moderate likelihoodThe specified outcome has a reasonable likelihood of occurrence.
high High likelihoodThe specified outcome is more likely to occur than not.
certain CertainThe specified outcome is effectively guaranteed.
