Accessing Lab data via FHIR – part 4
May 30, 2021 1 Comment
In this final post for the lab series, we’ll take the terminology resources that we created in the previous post and use them to map codes from the laboratory bespoke coding system to the (mostly) LOINC based NZPOC set.
A quick reminder of what those resources were:
- A CodeSystem and ValueSet that held the descriptions of the bespoke lab codes
- A ValueSet for NZPOC, plus the CodeSystem for the non-LOINC codes.
- A ConceptMap that defined the mappings from lab code to NZPOC (and we’re assuming that all the bespoke codes could be mapped – in practice you’d need a strategy for codes that couldn’t be mapped.)
