4.10 Resource ConceptMap - Content

Vocabulary Work GroupMaturity Level: 3 Trial UseSecurity Category: Anonymous Compartments: Not linked to any defined compartments

A statement of relationships from one set of concepts to one or more other concepts - either concepts in code systems, or data element/data element concepts, or classes in class models.

A concept map defines a mapping from a set of concepts defined in a code system (commonly referred to as the "system") to one or more concepts defined in other code systems. In the mapping context, a system can be a typical code system based on a recognized standard or local terminology (in any of its forms), or in some cases it may be an "implicit" code system that is not based on a recognized terminology but still represents a set of "concepts" that can be usefully mapped. Mappings are one way - from the source to the target system. In many cases, the reverse mappings are valid, but this cannot be assumed to be the case.

Mappings between code system concepts are only intended to be defined in the context of a particular business usage. The business use case is normally defined by the specification of the source and target value sets. The mappings may be useful in other contexts, but this must be determined based on the context of use and meaning; it cannot be taken for granted automatically. An example where the usage context is important for choosing the correct mapping is mapping from a clinical terminology (e.g. SNOMED CT) to a classification (e.g. ICD-10) for either data analysis or billing. Mappings in the data analysis context would be targeted for an appropriate classification (often at a higher level), whereas in the billing context there may be specific requirements to be met (e.g. leaf level codes only) that could result in multiple mappings for a single source concept and then require additional information beyond the source concept itself in order to select the correct final mapping.

Note that all code systems (explicit or implicit) represented in FHIR have URI identifiers for value sets (also either explicit or implicit) that include the entire code system, and these "all codes" value sets can be used for mappings that are valid in all use contexts that are appropriate for the code system.

Each mapping for a concept from the source to target system includes an equivalence property that specifies how similar the mapping is (or, in some cases, that there is no valid mapping). There is one element for each concept or field in the source value set or system that needs to be mapped. Each source concept may have multiple targets:

  • because there are multiple possible mappings (e.g., ambiguous)
  • to specify a correct map, and specify other mappings as invalid
  • when there are multiple mappings depending on the values of other elements (dependsOn)

There SHOULD be at least one target for each element, but some incomplete concept maps might not have a target for each concept.

A key concept for the ConceptMap resource is the $translate operation. This operation is a formal definition of an API by which a terminology server can allow clients to ask for a translation to be done based on the content in the ConceptMap resource. As such it also provides useful perspective on the operational use of ConceptMap resources in any context.

While ConceptMap resources are not referred to directly from any other resource, they may be included and used in ImplementationGuide resources, and provide background knowledge that is useful in many contexts, including operations defined in this specification.

In addition to ConceptMap, there is also the StructureMap resource. The ConceptMap resource defines relationships between concepts in their own right, along with grading of their equivalencies, while the StructureMap defines an executable transform for instances that conform to a known structure.

Both Code System supplements and Concept Maps may be used to define relationships between concepts in different systems. ConceptMaps are assertions of the relationships between different concepts that are associated with particular contexts of use, while CodeSystem supplements are used to define inherent properties and semantics of the concepts in the code system

Further discussion of the issues involved in mapping between concept definition systems can be found in the HL7 v3 Core Principles document and the functionality described in the OMG CTS 2 specification.

ConceptMap (DomainResource)An absolute URI that is used to identify this concept map when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or an instance; also called its canonical identifier. This SHOULD be globally unique and SHOULD be a literal address at which at which an authoritative instance of this concept map is (or will be) published. This URL can be the target of a canonical reference. It SHALL remain the same when the concept map is stored on different serversurl : uri [0..1]A formal identifier that is used to identify this concept map when it is represented in other formats, or referenced in a specification, model, design or an instanceidentifier : Identifier [0..1]The identifier that is used to identify this version of the concept map when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or instance.

  • The value of the system, version and code elements are the same as used by the Coding data type
  • When a mapping equivalence is characterized as "narrower", some explanation of the scope difference SHALL be provided in the comments
  • The concept map is a statement of mapping in a single direction. The existence of a matching mapping in the reverse direction cannot be assumed to exist automatically, but only through human review.
  • For simplicity, it is better if is only one element for each source concept. if there is more than one, then just as one element can have multiple targets, multiple occurrences of element with the same element.code simply aggregate their target elements as if there was only one element

The concept mappings in element are arranged into groups that share common source/target systems. These groups have no semantic significance; they exist to make the representation more concise. Concept maps may contain more than one group with the same source and target - this would be a less concise representation but may be useful in order to maintain a fixed order for the concepts that are mapped.

Concepts that are labeled as 'unmatched' are considered to be unmatched in the target value set, irrespective of whether they are contained in a group with a stated target system or not. Groups that contain no target system may only contained 'unmatched' concepts. There is no difference in the meaning of an unmatched target whether or not there is a stated target system.

In the simple case, a mapping is made from one code to another. E.g. from "home address" in one code system to "address - home" in another. But in other cases, the mapping is not a simple one to one mapping. A typical example might be mapping between a radiology imaging request that has 2 elements: modality, and body site, and another radiology imaging request that pre-coordinates both of these into a single code modality+body site. In this case, it is not possible to map from one code to another. Instead, the mapping might contain entries like this:

Source ConceptDependsOn.propertyDependsOn ConceptTarget Concept
X-RayBodysiteChestChest-XRay

When attempting to translate the source to the target, an application must also provide a value for the element identified in dependsOn.property so that the correct mapping can be performed. To support the reverse operation, product is the converse, and works in reverse.

To see a real example of a mapping with dependencies, check the Specimen Type Mapping.

If there is no explicit mapping for a code - that is, the engine processing the ConceptMap finds a group with a matching source system, but not matching element for the code it is translating, processing proceeds to the unmapped element that specifies what should happen.

The unmapped element can specify one of the following different actions to take if there is no mapping for a concept:

providedUse the code source as provided in the $translate request. This is especially useful for translations between versions of the same code system, where only a few codes have changed
fixedUse the code (and display) explicitly provided in the group.unmapped. This is useful when there's a fall back general code - especially for classifications
other-mapUse the map identified by the canonical URL in url. This is useful when a published concept map needs to be varied for a few specific cases on an institutional bass - the institution can create a simple concept that expresses their special cases, and then refer to the general purpose mappings

Note that this element is not used when there is an element with a matching code value, and an equivalence value of unmatched (or disjoint).

The ConceptMap resource is intended to map between concepts defined in a code system. It can also be useful to use the ConceptMap resource to define relationships between concepts defined in other kinds of resources. Here are some common kind of conceptual maps:

Though these resources are not explicitly defining code systems, they do define 'concept's that can still usefully be treated as code systems for the sake of subsetting (e.g. ValueSet) and defining relationships (e.g. ConceptMap). See Implicit Code Systems for further information.

Note that this is different from StructureMap because that is intended to define an executional transform between structures, not a conceptual model.
