CodeSystem: FHIR Defined Concept Properties (Experimental)

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/concept-properties Version: 5.0.0
Standards status: Normative Maturity Level: 4 Responsible: HL7 International / Terminology Infrastructure Computable Name: ConceptProperties

A set of common concept properties for use on coded systems throughout the FHIR eco-system.

This Code system is referenced in the content logical definition of the following value sets:

  • This CodeSystem is not used here; it may be used elsewhere (e.g. specifications and/or implementations that use this content)

Properties

This code system defines the following properties for its concepts

NameCodeURITypeDescription
Status status http://hl7.org/fhir/concept-properties#status code A code that indicates the status of the concept. Typical values are active, experimental, deprecated, and retired

Concepts

This case-sensitive code system http://hl7.org/fhir/concept-properties defines the following codes:

CodeDisplayDefinitionStatus
status Status

A code that indicates the status of the concept. Typical values are active, experimental, deprecated, and retired
inactive Inactive

True if the concept is not considered active - e.g. not a valid concept any more. Property type is boolean, default value is false. Note that the status property may also be used to indicate that a concept is inactive
effectiveDate effectiveDate

The date at which the concept status was last changed
deprecated Deprecated

The date at which a concept was deprecated. Concepts that are deprecated but not inactive can still be used, but their use is discouraged, and they should be expected to be made inactive in a future release. Property type is dateTime. Note that the status property may also be used to indicate that a concept is deprecated

 deprecated
deprecationDate Deprecation Date

The date at which a concept was deprecated. Concepts that are deprecated but not inactive can still be used, but their use is discouraged, and they should be expected to be made inactive in a future release. Property type is dateTime. Note that the status property may also be used to indicate that a concept is deprecated
retirementDate Retirement Date

The date at which a concept was retired
notSelectable Not Selectable

The concept is not intended to be chosen by the user - only intended to be used as a selector for other concepts. Note, though, that the interpretation of this is highly contextual; all concepts are selectable in some context. Property type is boolean
parent Parent

The concept identified in this property is a parent of the concept on which it is a property. The property type will be 'code'. The meaning of 'parent' is defined by the hierarchyMeaning attribute
child Child

The concept identified in this property is a child of the concept on which it is a property. The property type will be 'code'. The meaning of 'child' is defined by the hierarchyMeaning attribute
partOf Part Of

The concept identified in this property (by its code) contains this concept as a component (i.e. a part-of relationship rather than a subsumption relationship such as elbow is part-of arm
synonym Synonym

This property contains an alternative code that may be used to identify this concept instead of the primary code
comment Comment

A string that provides additional detail pertinent to the use or understanding of the concept
itemWeight itemWeight

A numeric value that allows the comparison (less than, greater than) or other numerical manipulation of a concept (e.g. Adding up components of a score). Scores are usually a whole number, but occasionally decimals are encountered in scores. In questionnaires, the item weight may be represented using the http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/itemWeight extension
