Value Set Type | Static |
Purpose of Value Set | These codes specify a high-level classification of the particular kind of document (e.g., Prescription, Discharge Summary, Report, Summary, Images, Treatment Plan, Patient Preferences, Workflow). Note that ClassCode uses a different value set than the document typeCode that specifies the precise type of document from the user perspective. |
Method | The value set has values drawn from a coding scheme providing a coarse level of granularity (about 10 entries). It is a classification where a specifci document falls only under one possible value in the value set. It has been designed to be free (or orthogonal) from medical specialties, so that it may be combined without semantical conflicts with XDS practiceSetting Metadata that conveys the medical specialty. |
The implementation of this value set requires that a consumer of coded values processes the “Code” for any automated decision and uses the associated Display Name only for rendering of the value in the value set."
