Topic: Relating ConceptMap to Element mapping
Alexander Henket (Jan 21 2019 at 15:03):
I create profiles, and add notional mappings at element level to our Dutch information models. At points where FHIR has a binding to a ValueSet that does not match ours, I need a ConceptMap to instruct my implementers how to handle those.
Since our Dutch IMs have versions, the ConceptMap might differ from mapping element to mapping element. I have talked to @Grahame Grieve at some point about how to best connect the ConceptMaps to the mappings. We landed on an extension to ElementDefinition.mapping but until now I use the mapping.comment for a textual reference to the ConceptMap.
Looking at R4, I see the right type of extension exists (permitted-value-conceptmap), but does not appear to have the right context for ElementDefinition.mapping just yet.
Do I need to file a ticket for that, or is there a different extension to turn to?

Permitted-value-conceptmap is intended to support ISO data element definitions - specifically the linkage between the "stored" and the "exchanged" codes. I'd be surprised if that's what you wanted...
