Topic: Refill num value set

the Carin pharmacy profile (http://hl7.org/fhir/us/carin-bb/StructureDefinition/C4BB-ExplanationOfBenefit-Pharmacy) contains supportingInfo:refillNum and that links to a code system http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/claim-exception which has two entries, one for student and one for disabled. How do these codes relate to a refill number? Or, are we supposed to add to the value set? Or is there another option?

I believe what you're seeing there is in the "snapshot" view and that code is just inhereted from the base spec:

The field is optional and the binding to that claim-exception valueset is "example" which means its really just an example of the type of things you might put in that code. I'm not sure what binding would make more sense here but I'm guessing you probably won't see many refillNum supportingInfo elements with a code (instead focus on the category and the valueQuantity which are required)

That's just an example binding, and if you look at the refillNum slice:

it has only the (fixed) category identifying it as a refil number and its value (as a valueQuantity)
