2    SBADMhttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ActClasssubstance administration

The act of introducing or otherwise applying a substance to the subject.

Discussion: The effect of the substance is typically established on a biochemical basis, however, that is not a requirement. For example, radiotherapy can largely be described in the same way, especially if it is a systemic therapy such as radio-iodine. This class also includes the application of chemical treatments to an area.

Examples: Chemotherapy protocol; Drug prescription; Vaccination record

Description: The act of removing a substance from the subject.

A procedure for obtaining a specimen from a source entity.

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
