Importing Value Sets

The Browse > Terminology screen allows you to import value sets from either VSAC or PHIN VADS. Imported value sets cannot be edited/modified using Trifolia.

  1. Select Browse > Terminology
  2. Click the "Import Value Set" button in the top-right
  3. Specify the source from where you want the value set imported
  4. Enter the identifier (in most cases, the OID) of the value set to import
  5. Click OK

If the value set changes and needs to be re-imported into Trifolia:

  1. Click the link on the value set in Browse > Terminology
  2. Select "Re-Import"
  3. Click "OK" on the pop-up window for importing

Importing from VSAC

When Trifolia imports a value set from the VSAC, it always imports the latest version of the value set. This may be enhanced in the future to allow specifying which version of the value set to retrieve.

The identifier created for the value set by trifolia is an HL7-II identifier type, which includes the OID of the value set and the version/date of the value set. For example: urn:hl7ii:2.16.840.1.113883.3.2288:20170320 where 2.16.840.1.113883.3.2288 is the OID of the value set, and 20170320 is the version/date of the value set.
