Topic: CodeSystem.concept effective | expiration
Alexander Henket (Mar 31 2021 at 21:00):
In a CodeSystem I'd like to mark when a concept/code became first active and if applicable when it expired.
On resources there is an extension resource-effectivePeriod which would fit the use case but that is missing a context for this path.
Is there any alternative method? CodeSystem.concept.property could be one? Is there any guidance on which code to use in that case?

The FHIR spec includes some standardized concept properties:

including effectiveDate and deprecated (date)

Ah that's right ... I wish that list was just connected through a binding. It is hard to remember it like this ... I should probably file a ticket for that but thanks for now!

I think one challenge with a binding here is that the CodeSystem.property.code codes are effectively relative and actually "grounded" by their association with CodeSystem.property.uri
