Before we start thinking of the specifics of coding in lab tests, a quick review of coded data in FHIR in general is probably a good idea. The strength of the binding is ‘example’, which means that, actually, any code from any codesystem is allowed. For example, a url value of [link] would indicate that this is a LOINC code.
