CodeSystem Code Composition (deprecated)
Overview
Given a set of properties, return one or more possible matching codes. For more details, see the official FHIR terminology documentation CodeSystem Code Composition
$compose may return 3 possible types of match
- complete match - a code that represents all the provided properties correctly
- partial match - a code that represents some of the provided properties correctly and not others
- possible match - code that may represent the provided properties closely
When send exact
parameter is true
- compose operation only returns complete and partial matches. When exact is `false` - compose include possible matches to a response. Default value is true; that means that by default returning only complete and partial matches.
