CodeDisplayDefinition
treatmentTreatmentOne or more interventions are being evaluated for treating a disease, syndrome, or condition.
preventionPreventionOne or more interventions are being assessed for preventing the development of a specific disease or health condition.
diagnosticDiagnosticOne or more interventions are being evaluated for identifying a disease or health condition.
supportive-careSupportive CareOne or more interventions are evaluated for maximizing comfort, minimizing side effects, or mitigating against a decline in the participant's health or function.
screeningScreeningOne or more interventions are assessed or examined for identifying a condition, or risk factors for a condition, in people who are not yet known to have the condition or risk factor.
health-services-researchHealth Services ResearchOne or more interventions for evaluating the delivery, processes, management, organization, or financing of healthcare.
basic-scienceBasic ScienceOne or more interventions for examining the basic mechanism of action (for example, physiology or biomechanics of an intervention).
device-feasibilityDevice FeasibilityAn intervention of a device product is being evaluated to determine the feasibility of the product or to test a prototype device and not health outcomes. Such studies are conducted to confirm the design and operating specifications of a device before beginning a full clinical trial.

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

LvlA 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
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). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract')
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
