Specializes | | The child code is a more narrow version of the concept represented by the parent code. I.e. Every child concept is also a valid parent concept. Used to allow determination of subsumption. Must be transitive, irreflexive, antisymmetric. | Coding |
Generalizes | | Inverse of Specializes. Only included as a derived relationship. | Coding |
internalId | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/utg-concept-properties#v3-internal-id | The internal identifier for the concept in the HL7 Access database repository. | code |
notSelectable | http://hl7.org/fhir/concept-properties#notSelectable | Indicates that the code is abstract - only intended to be used as a selector for other concepts | boolean |
status | http://hl7.org/fhir/concept-properties#status | Designation of a concept's state. Normally is not populated unless the state is retired. | code |
synonymCode | http://hl7.org/fhir/concept-properties#synonym | An additional concept code that was also attributed to a concept | code |
