Classifies the Entity class and all of its subclasses. The terminology is hierarchical. At the top is this HL7-defined domain of high-level categories (such as represented by the Entity subclasses). Each of these terms must be harmonized and is specializable. The value sets beneath are drawn from multiple, frequently external, domains that reflect much more fine-grained typing.
This Code system is referenced in the content logical definition of the following value sets:

Properties
This code system defines the following properties for its concepts
Name | Code | URI | Type | Description |
Specializes | Specializes | Coding | 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. | |
Generalizes | Generalizes | Coding | Inverse of Specializes. Only included as a derived relationship. | |
internalId | internalId | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/utg-concept-properties#v3-internal-id | code | The internal identifier for the concept in the HL7 Access database repository. |
Name:Class | Name:Class | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/utg-concept-properties#rim-Class | code | The formal name for the class clone under this code |
appliesTo | appliesTo | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/utg-concept-properties#v3-applies-to | string | Haven't a clue! |
Status | status | http://hl7.org/fhir/concept-properties#status | code | Designation of a concept's state. Normally is not populated unless the state is retired. |
Concepts
This case-sensitive code system http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-EntityClass
