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.

Assessments of a health-related matter of interest, importance, or worry to a patient, patient’s family, or patient’s healthcare provider that could identify a need, problem, or condition.

PROMIS (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System) survey score result

Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) program created new paradigms for how clinical research information is collected, used, and reported. PROMIS addressed a need in the clinical research community for a rigorously tested patient reported outcome (PRO) measurement tool that uses recent advances in information technology, psychometrics, and qualitative, cognitive, and health survey research to measure PROs such as pain, fatigue, physical functioning, emotional distress, and social role participation that have a major impact on quality-of-life across a variety of chronic diseases.

Maternal Social Determinants of Health Note

The Maternal Social Determinants of Health Note supports the aggregation of significant events, social problems and related health concerns, and plans of care derived from the visits over the course of a maternal care episode. It is a summary of the most critical information maternal care providers capture and share regarding the status of a maternal patient's social issues. The information is aggregated data from which the patient’s interactions with healthcare and social services providers are captured.

PRO-CTCAE (NCI Patient Reported Outcomes version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) was developed to evaluate symptomatic toxicities by self-report in adults, adolescents and children participating in cancer clinical trials. It is designed to be utilized in comparison to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), the standard lexicon for adverse event reporting in cancer trials.

Instrument Unique Identifier

Uniquely identifies the type of instrument that was used in conjunction with the Test kit (at minimum by using instrument name and manufacturer (similar to the make and model of a car)) to obtain the Test Result Value. When a testkit is used on an instrument it is the combination of kit and instrument, that qualify the Performed Test.
