You can use the FHIR Resources for a variety of use cases:
$translate
operation). This functionality is also available via the domain-specific standardize operations.$classify
operation). This functionality is also available via the domain-specific classify operations.Use cases vary mostly in the source data domain (medications vs. problems vs. procedures, etc), value set scope (e.g., CCSR Category
vs. LOINC - Component
etc), and value set use (e.g., grouping vs. categorizing vs. enhancing).
Two of the most common use cases involving FHIR Resources are covered in detail:
