Code Lists

Shared HD4DP2 Code Lists

The HD4DP2 platform maintains a set of general code lists that are referenced across all QERMID registers. These are shared value sets used in DCD fields typed as code.

Source: docs.healthdata.be — HD4DP2 code lists

Available code lists

Code list Typical usage
COUNTRY Country of origin / nationality
HCP Healthcare professional identification
HPIN Healthcare professional identification number
MUNICIPALITY Municipality (gemeente/commune)
PLACE_OF_RESIDENCE Patient place of residence
POSTCODE Belgian postal codes
SITE Healthcare facility site
WARD Hospital ward
ICD10CM ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes
HPO Human phenotype ontology
MICROORGANISM Microorganism codes
MORPHOLOGY Morphology codes
ORPHA Orphanet rare disease codes
BODY_STRUCTURE Body structure (anatomy)

Each code list page on docs.healthdata.be contains the full set of code values. Individual DCD specification files reference these by name (e.g. a field with code list SEX or PLACE_OF_RESIDENCE).

Register-specific code lists

In addition to the shared lists above, each register defines its own code lists within the DCD Excel file. For example, the Orthopride registers include SNOMED-coded values for sex:

Label SNOMED CT Code
Male 248153007
Female 248152002
Indeterminate sex 32570681000036106
Unknown 261665006

These register-specific code lists are documented in the code_list columns of each DCD spec file.

Note: The CodeSystems in this IG currently contain placeholder values only. Populating them with the actual codes from the DCD specifications is a pending task.
