Topic: Converting LOINC code to CDCrec

I'm trying to transform a questionnaire response to a us-core-patient. The QuestionnaireResponse has an answer for race and ethnicity represented with LOINC codes.
A us-core-patient uses a code set by the CDC , so I am wondering what ways there are to convert the LOINC codes for race/ethnicity to the CDC code set, and if this can be done through the FHIR mapping language.
EX: LOINC code for American Indian or Alaska Native: LA6155-1, CDC code for American Indian or Alaska Native: 1002-5
CDC codes:

@Corey Wen I think that ConceptMap will be the most straightforward way to create and usilize (via $translate) a mapping from LOINC to CDCREC.
