Topic: Value set References

@Bryn Rhodes I am tightening up the build validation of inter-resource references. You have 2 value set references that are not valid, and look like they could be : ValueSet/LOINCDepressionAnswersList and ValueSet/LOINCDifficultyAnswersList - do you know which actual LOINC lists these are?

further, does CodeSystem/npi-taxonomy actually want to refer to http://nucc.org/provider-taxonomy?

@Grahame Grieve Here are the links to the actual LOINC lists:

Should I create value sets for these?

view this post on Zulip Bryn Rhodes (Mar 06 2017 at 20:09):

And yes, that's the CodeSystem I want, I couldn't find the actual reference so I made one up.

you don't need to - just reference the implicit LOINC value sets, see http://build.fhir.org/loinc.html#alist

and please change the code system reference - you can do that without doing a patch

It's not clear to me from the documentation how to reference one of these implicit code systems as a resource?

view this post on Zulip Bryn Rhodes (Mar 06 2017 at 21:26):

Generally, the documentation here (http://build.fhir.org/terminologies.html#system) says this: An http: address SHOULD resolve to some useful description of the code system. Ideally, if a user makes a request of the address with the media type set to a FHIR media type, the server will respond with a FHIR Value Set resource with an inline code system, but some other human or computable definition is allowed

But shouldn't that SHOULD there say that it should return a CodeSystem resource? Why have the code system url resolve to a ValueSet?

view this post on Zulip Bryn Rhodes (Mar 06 2017 at 21:27):

Or maybe I should raise that on the terminology stream?

legacy thing I missed. fixed

they're not implicit code systems, they're implicit value sets. It would jsut be

http://loinc.org/vs/LL358-3 and http://loinc.org/vs/LL359-1

Yeah, not the value sets, I'm talking about the change to use the NUCC provider taxonomy code system.

view this post on Zulip Bryn Rhodes (Mar 06 2017 at 21:43):

So as a code system uri, it's http://nucc.org/provider-taxonomy

view this post on Zulip Bryn Rhodes (Mar 06 2017 at 21:43):

But I have a place where I need to reference that code system as a resource.

view this post on Zulip Bryn Rhodes (Mar 06 2017 at 21:44):

So would it be CodeSystem/provider-taxonomy?

view this post on Zulip Grahame Grieve (Mar 06 2017 at 21:48):

why do you need to reference the code system as a resource?

view this post on Zulip Bryn Rhodes (Mar 06 2017 at 21:50):

I have a Library where I want to declare that it has a dependency on that code system, which is done as a relatedArtifact, which references a resource.

you can still reference the code system by it's canonical URL
