This code system http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-EntityDeterminer defines the following codes:

LvlCodeDisplayDefinitionDeprecatedinternalIdstatusdeprecationDateName:Class
1INSTANCE specific**Description:**A determiner that specifies that the Entity object represents a particular physical thing (as opposed to a universal, kind, or class of physical thing). **Discussion:** It does not matter whether an INSTANCE still exists as a whole at the point in time (or process) when we mention it, for example, a drug product lot is an INSTANCE even though it has been portioned out for retail purpose.10881active
2  GROUP specific groupA determiner that specifies that the Entity object represents a particular collection of physical things (as opposed to a universal, kind, or class of physical thing). While the collection may resolve to having only a single individual (or even no individuals), the potential should exist for it to cover multiple individuals.23599active
1KIND described**Description:**A determiner that specifies that the Entity object represents a universal, kind or class of physical thing (as opposed to a particular thing).10879activeKind
2  GROUPKIND described groupA determiner that specifies that the Entity object represents a universal, kind or class of collections physical things. While the collection may resolve to having only a single individual (or even no individuals), the potential should exist for it to cover multiple individuals.23600active
2  QUANTIFIED_KIND described quantifiedThe described quantified determiner indicates that the given Entity is taken as a general description of a specific amount of a thing. For example, QUANTIFIED\_KIND of syringe (quantity = 3,) stands for exactly three syringes.Deprecated10880deprecated2008-11-14
