Topic: Code system uri

Situation:
I have chart data coded as:
AL 2.16.840.1.113883.6.92 (FIPS52)
7280 2.16.840.1.113883.6.310 (Census Industry)
Etc.
What code system uri should I use in my FHIR resource that corresponds to 2.16.840.1.113883.6.92 or 2.16.840.1.113883.6.310?

If nothing else has been defined (for FHIR or otherwise) and you don't want to (or can't) define an actual url, you should be able to use urn:oid:2.16.840.1.113883.6.92 and urn:oid:2.16.840.1.113883.6.310. You likely won't have terminology service support for these code systems (unless you arrange to have it added), but you may not need to have that explicitly, depending on what you are doing.
