Level 2 Organization Healthcare Services

Describe a specific healthcare service or category of services (such as counseling, imaging, or laboratory) offered by an organization at a designated location, which can be either physical or virtual. The service provider may include hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, or other specialized healthcare providers.

In addition to LOINC and SNOMED CT, other relevant code systems for the Healthcare Service data element include:

1. NDC (National Drug Code): For identifying medications and drug services.
2. ICD (International Classification of Diseases): For coding diagnoses that may relate to specific healthcare services.
3. CPT (Current Procedural Terminology): For coding medical procedures and services provided by healthcare professionals.
4. HCPCS (Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System): For coding healthcare services, supplies, and equipment.

These additional code systems further support the standardized representation of healthcare services.
