Working with Collections

Overview

Collections are versioned repositories of references to existing concepts and mappings. Collections are used to organize concepts and mappings that are defined in other sources into useful logical groupings. They may be domain specific (e.g. oncology), or project specific (e.g. CHW-provided postpartum care).

Examples of collections include a subset of ICD-10, a diabetes value set, or a Community Maternal-Child Starter Set. Concepts and mappings are added into a collection by creating references. Multiple references may be combined to build the desired set of concepts and mappings.

Using OCL to create Collections of concepts of allows users to make customized lists of standardized terminology to most efficiently serve their terminology management needs in various departments, domains, projects, etc. Note:
