4.4.1.597.3 Expansion

This expansion generated 26 Mar 2023

This value set contains 3 concepts

Expansion based on triggered Bytype v5.0.0 (CodeSystem)

Code	System	Display	Definition
reflex	http://hl7.org/fhir/observation-triggeredbytype	Reflex	Performance of one or more other tests depending on the results of the initial test. This may include collection of additional specimen. While a new ServiceRequest is not required to perform the additional test, where it is still needed (e.g., requesting another laboratory to perform the reflex test), the Observation.basedOn would reference the new ServiceRequest that requested the additional test to be performed as well as the original ServiceRequest to reflect the one that provided the authorization.
repeat	http://hl7.org/fhir/observation-triggeredbytype	Repeat (per policy)	Performance of the same test again with the same parameters/settings/solution.
re-run	http://hl7.org/fhir/observation-triggeredbytype	Re-run (per policy)	Performance of the same test but with different parameters/settings/solution.

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
