Someone has asked me about a terminology server operation that maybe we haven't done yet. The first cut is pretty simple:

  • you have a CodeableConcept with an text
  • you want to ask the terminology server to choose a code based on the text, or to choose a list of possible codes

maybe that's a value set expansion with a text filter... but maybe the first option isn't quite that

then the next variation: I want the server to propose one or more codes from the text, and indicate which words - maybe is that an List of CodeableConcept with coding and text

the next variation is full NLP - give me an offset map so I can show the user which parts of the text have which code

We've been doing a form of this using ConceptMaps backed by algorithms - with URLs to name them like http://ontoserver.csiro.au/fhir/ConceptMap/automapstrategy-strict and http://ontoserver.csiro.au/fhir/ConceptMap/automapstrategy-MML
