AU eRequesting Implementation Guide
0.1.0-ballot - Ballot Australia flag

Terminology

Page standards status: Informative

This page lists all ValueSets and CodeSystems supported as part of AU eRequesting.

As well as terminology defined in FHIR, this specification supports terminology defined in AU Base or National Clinical Terminology Service (NCTS) terminology resources.

Value Sets

Many value sets used in this guide are defined in the base FHIR specification, AU Base, or NCTS.

Work is underway within RANZCR to finalise the development of the Radiology Referral Set with the aim of including all radiology procedures performed in Australia. The RANZCR Radiology Referral value set included in the AU eRequesting IG is an evolving draft that is derived from the latest agreed set of concepts from the RRS. At this time the value set contains the concepts for X-Ray, Angiography and Ultrasound. Implementers are advised to take note that concepts within the value set will continue to expand and evolve when further iterations of the Radiology Referral Set are available. When the work on the referral set and value set is completed, the value set will be published in NCTS.
