A code or set of codes (e.g., for routine, emergency,) specifying the urgency under which the Act happened, can happen, is happening, is intended to happen, or is requested/demanded to happen.
Discussion: This attribute is used in orders to indicate the ordered priority, and in event documentation it indicates the actual priority used to perform the act. In definition mood it indicates the available priorities.

This value set includes codes based on the following rules:
http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ActPriority
Code | Display | Definition |
A | ASAP | As soon as possible, next highest priority after stat. |
CR | callback results | Filler should contact the placer as soon as results are available, even for preliminary results. (Was "C" in HL7 version 2.3's reporting priority.) |
EL | elective | Beneficial to the patient but not essential for survival. |
EM | emergency | An unforeseen combination of circumstances or the resulting state that calls for immediate action. |
P | preop | Used to indicate that a service is to be performed prior to a scheduled surgery. When ordering a service and using the pre-op priority, a check is done to see the amount of time that must be allowed for performance of the service. When the order is placed, a message can be generated indicating the time needed for the service so that it is not ordered in conflict with a scheduled operation. |
PRN | as needed | An "as needed" order should be accompanied by a description of what constitutes a need. This description is represented by an observation service predicate as a precondition. |
R | routine | Routine service, do at usual work hours. |
RR | rush reporting | A report should be prepared and sent as quickly as possible. |
S | stat | With highest priority (e.g., emergency). |
T | timing critical | It is critical to come as close as possible to the requested time (e.g., for a through antimicrobial level). |
UD | use as directed | Drug is to be used as directed by the prescriber. |
UR | urgent | Calls for prompt action. |

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
Level | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies |
System | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance) |
Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept |
Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code |
