               value="In the United States, federal standards for classifying data on race determine the categories used by federal agencies and exert a strong influence on categorization by state and local agencies and private sector organizations. The federal standards do not conceptually define race, and they recognize the absence of an anthropological or scientific basis for racial classification. Instead, the federal standards acknowledge that race is a social-political construct in which an individual's own identification with one more race categories is preferred to observer identification. The standards use a variety of features to define five minimum race categories.  The minimum race categories are American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, Black or African American, Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, and White. The 5 base codes (see http://forum.sitenv.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=23&sid=8fb101254557843fa05ac94d8d83a095) from PHIN VADS https://phinvads.cdc.gov/vads/ViewValueSet.action?id=94E75E17-176B-DE11-9B52-0015173D1785 (oid: 2.16.840.1.113883.1.11.14914)."/>
