Introduction to Code System Management: Supporting Major Standards like FHIR and LOINC
77149-3 - Browse Code Systems - NIH Browse Code Systems
NIH provides access to FHIR R4 internal code systems derived from the HL7 FHIR source of truth.
Summary
This page introduces the search and management view for 'Code Systems' provided by UMLS (Unified Medical Language System). Users can handle diverse medical code systems, such as CDT and HCPCS, and access detailed information supporting major interoperability standards including FHIR and HL7v2/v3.
Key Players
Details
This page functions more like a technical reference or specification guide focused on the UMLS 'Code System' functionality. Users can search for specific codes or concepts and view their details. Notably, it explicitly states that major interoperability standards like FHIR.R4 derive directly from the UMLS data source. It also includes cautionary notes regarding specific coding systems (e.g., CDT range codes are not official), providing guidance to users on selecting appropriate code sets. Furthermore, advanced developer features such as displaying REST API URLs and a Code Clipboard View are provided, giving it aspects of a technical implementation guide beyond mere information viewing.
Technology Note
FHIR（Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources）は医療データ交換の国際標準。このエントリの関連技術: HL7
