| Title | Cross-version ValueSet R4B.FocusCharacteristicCode for use in FHIR R4 |
| Realm | uv |
| Authority | hl7 |
| Description | This cross-version ValueSet represents content from `http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/focus-characteristic-code|4.3.0` for use in FHIR R4. |
| Purpose | This value set is part of the cross-version definitions generated to enable use of the
value set `http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/focus-characteristic-code|4.3.0` as defined in FHIR R4B
in FHIR R4.
The source value set is bound to the following FHIR R4B elements:
* `EvidenceReport.subject.characteristic.code`
Note that all concepts are included in this cross-version definition because no concepts have compatible representations
Following are the generation technical comments:
FHIR ValueSet `http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/focus-characteristic-code|4.3.0`, defined in FHIR R4B does not have any mapping to FHIR R4 |
