Field | Data type | Purpose | Part of Primary Key | |
An Integer, grouping a set of complex map records from which one may be selected as a target code. Where a SNOMED CT conceptmaps onto 'n' target codes, there will be 'n' groups, each containing one or more complex map records. | YES | NO | ||
Within a mapGroup, the mapPriority specifies the order in which complex map records should be checked. Only the first map record meeting the run - time selection criteria will be taken as the target codewithin the group of alternate codes. | YES | NO | ||
A machine-readable rule, (evaluating to either 'true' or 'false' at run-time) that indicates whether this map record should be selected within its mapGroup. | YES | NO | ||
Human-readable advice, that may be employed by the software vendor to give an end-user advice on selection of the appropriate target codefrom the alternatives presented to him within the group. | YES | NO | ||
The target codein the target terminology, classification or code system. | YES | NO | ||
A childof 447247004 | SNOMED CT source code to target map code correlation value| in the metadata hierarchy, identifying the correlation between the SNOMED CT conceptand the target code. | YES | NO | ||
The following additional field only applies to 609331003 | Extended map type reference set| | ||||
Identifies the SNOMED CT conceptin the metadata hierarchy which represents the MapCategory for the associated map member. The categories vary for different target codesystems, each set of categories is represented by a subtypeof 609330002 | Map category value| . In the case of ICD-10the individual category values are subtypesof: 447634004 | ICD-10 map category value| . | YES | NO |
