Predecessors to Code Sets and Code Set Bundles in Health Cloud

Before the Spring ’21 release, Health Cloud had the Healthcare Procedure and Healthcare Diagnosis objects. These objects stored codes specifically related to procedures and diagnoses. These codes were used for prior-authorization requests and approval processes.

Code Set and Code Set Bundle are more generic objects designed to store a wider variety of standardized codes required by the industry, and are more aligned with FHIR R4.

The new Code Set and Code Set Bundle objects improve on the old objects by adding support for terminology system information. This added support comes in the form of the Source System and Version fields.

Objects, flows, and apps that previously used Healthcare Diagnosis and Healthcare Procedure have been or will be extended to support the use of Code Set and Code Set Bundle. Healthcare Diagnosis and Healthcare Procedure are to be gradually phased out with future releases.
