Building interfaces for data entry

  • Choose your CodeSystem(s) (ideally standardized ones!)
  • Choose or define your ValueSets
    • The subset of the CodeSystem that is relevant for the data field
  • If your ValueSet is small, a picklist can be populated using $expand
  • If your ValueSet is large, a typeahead widget can use $expand?filter=xxx

Remember, search is a poor UX when the ValueSet is small and small ValueSets drive selection of the “least wrong” code.
