description
This file contains the mappings from one coding system to another coding system. Selection of a term or a code from one coding system can be translated to another coding system.
Fields
#NameLocationTypeDetailsIndexDescription
.01mapping id(+)0;1NUMERICBThe purpose of this field is to hold the mapping ID. The mapping ID may be a VUID or a Lexicon ID. If it is a VUID it is assigned for each individual map by the VETS system. Each mapping ID must indentify uniquely the mapping of one source code to one, and only one, target code.
.02mapping definition0;4POINTER757.32AMAPDEFThis is the Mapping Definition for a specific mapping record which defines source coding system is being mapped to which target coding system. This Mapping Definition is stored in the Mapping Definition file #757.32.
1source code0;2FREE TEXTThis is a code from the Source Coding System of the Mapping Definition (file 757.32). It is the basis of the mapping (source) and will be mapped to a code from another coding system.
2target code0;3FREE TEXTThis is a code from the Target Coding System of the Mapping Definition (file 757.32). It is the result of the mapping (target) based on the source code from another coding system.
3status history2;0MULTIPLE757.333This multiple field contains a series of records indicating the mapping status (active or inactive) over time.
4mapping order(+)3;1NUMERICThis field contains an integer that determines the order of preference for when a single source code maps to multiple target codes. The order will be determined by domain stewards responsible for the maintenance of the mapping in question. If there is only one target for the source code the value of this field will default to 1.
5match0;5SET OF CODES1:FULL
0:PARTIAL
If the target code is a true match for the source code then the value will be set to 1 indicating a fully compatible match. If the target code is a partial match for the source code then the value will be set to 0 indicating a partial match and that human review is necessary to evaluate the mapping.
