The [[DataElement]] resource is used to look-up existing data elements that can be referenced in forms. Optionally, [[DataElement]]s can also be created and maintained in conjunction with form editing. This is an optional feature as not all environments will provide support for data element definitions from form authors. The [[ValueSet]] resource is used to capture allowed values for questions that are to be answered from a pre-defined list of values. For some forms, some or all of the referenced value sets will be handled as 'contained' resources, meaning the value set exists only in the context of the [[Questionnaire]] and cannot be referenced or maintained without also updating the form. However, systems should support value set re-use across questionnaires.
