Purpose

A supports the representation of simple maps from values in other code systems to . No constraints are put on the number of to which a particular code is mapped.

Data structure

A is a - used to represent maps from codes in another terminology, classification or code system to SNOMED CT concepts. Its structure is shown in the following table.
