Purpose

An 723563008 | MRCM module scope reference set| specifies the set of MRCM reference sets that should be applied to the content in each module. Within a SNOMED CT Edition, the MRCM rules applied to the included modules must be consistent, to ensure data integrity within an edition is maintained.

Data Structure

An 723563008 | MRCM module scope reference set| is structured as shown in the following table.

Field	Data type	Purpose	Mutable	Part of Primary Key
id	UUID	A 128 bit unsigned Integer, uniquely identifying this reference set member. Different versions of a reference set member share the same id but have different effectiveTime. This allows a reference set member to be modified or made inactive (i.e. removed from the active set) at a specified time.	NO	YES (Full /Snapshot)
effectiveTime	Time	The inclusive date or time at which this version of the identified reference set member became the current version. Note: In distribution files the effectiveTime should follow the short ISO date format (YYYYMMDD) and should not include the hours, minutes, seconds or timezone indicator. The current version of this reference set member at time T is the version with the most recent effectiveTime prior to or equal to time T .	YES	YES (Full) Optional (Snapshot)
active	Boolean	The state of the identified reference set member as at the specified effectiveTime . If active = 1 (true) the reference set member is part of the current version of the set, if active = 0 (false) the reference set member is not part of the current version of the set.	YES	NO
moduleId	SCTID	Identifies the SNOMED CT module that contains this reference set member as at the specified effectiveTime . The value must be a subtype of 900000000000443000 \| Module (core metadata concept)\| within the metadata hierarchy.	YES	NO
refsetId	SCTID	Identifies the reference set to which this reference set member belongs. In this case, set to 723563008 \| MRCM module scope reference set\|	NO	NO
referencedComponentId	SCTID	A reference to the SNOMED CT component to be included in the reference set. Identifies the SNOMED CT module to which the given concept model refset is applied. The value must be a subtype of 900000000000443000 \| Module\| within the metadata hierarchy.	NO	NO
mrcmRuleRefsetId	SCTID	A subtype of 723564002 \| MRCM reference set\| that defines the concept model rules that are applied to content in the module identified by referencedComponentId.	NO	NO

Metadata

The following metadata hierarchy supports this reference set:

900000000000454005 | Foundation metadata concept|
- 900000000000455006 | Reference set|
  - 723564002 | MRCM reference set|
- - - 723563008 | MRCM module scope reference set|
- 900000000000457003 | Reference set attribute|
  - 723577006 | MRCM rule reference set|

Reference Set Descriptor and Example Data

Notes on the tables used to show descriptors and examples

The reference set example tables on this page have been revised as follows to aid clarity and understanding:

The first four columns which are present in all release files are not shown. The omitted columns (id, effectiveTime, active, moduleId) are used in the same way in all referenced sets to support identification, versioning and packaging. They do not directly affect the specific features of a particular reference set or reference set type.
Reference set columns that contain SNOMED CT identifiers are expanded to show details of the concept or description referenced by that identifier. In some cases, the term is shown in the same column using the expression syntax, in other cases an additional column with a name suffix '_term' has been added. In the standard reference set files only the identifier is present in the column and there is no added column for the term. When using reference sets, the term and other details of the component are looked up from the relevant component release files.
