Code | Display | Definition |
ActivityDefinition | ActivityDefinition | This resource allows for the definition of some activity to be performed, independent of a particular patient, practitioner, or other performance context. |
ChargeItemDefinition | ChargeItemDefinition | The ChargeItemDefinition resource provides the properties that apply to the (billing) codes necessary to calculate costs and prices. The properties may differ largely depending on type and realm, therefore this resource gives only a rough structure and requires profiling for each type of billing code system. |
EventDefinition | EventDefinition | The EventDefinition resource provides a reusable description of when a particular event can occur. |
Measure | Measure | The Measure resource provides the definition of a quality measure. |
MessageDefinition | MessageDefinition | Defines the characteristics of a message that can be shared between systems, including the type of event that initiates the message, the content to be transmitted and what response(s), if any, are permitted. |
ObservationDefinition | ObservationDefinition | Set of definitional characteristics for a kind of observation or measurement produced or consumed by an orderable health care service. |
OperationDefinition | OperationDefinition | A formal computable definition of an operation (on the RESTful interface) or a named query (using the search interaction). |
PlanDefinition | PlanDefinition | This resource allows for the definition of various types of plans as a sharable, consumable, and executable artifact. The resource is general enough to support the description of a broad range of clinical and non-clinical artifacts such as clinical decision support rules, order sets, protocols, and drug quality specifications. |
Questionnaire | Questionnaire | A structured set of questions intended to guide the collection of answers from end-users. Questionnaires provide detailed control over order, presentation, phraseology and grouping to allow coherent, consistent data collection. |
SubscriptionTopic | SubscriptionTopic | Describes a stream of resource state changes identified by trigger criteria and annotated with labels useful to filter projections from this topic. |
TestScript | TestScript | A structured set of tests against a FHIR server or client implementation to determine compliance against the FHIR specification. |

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 |
Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code |
