Call a user-supplied FHIR terminology server ($validate-code, $expand, $lookup, $translate) to validate and expand clinical codes without bundling restricted vocabulary (SNOMED CT, RxNorm, LOINC, ICD-10) into OpenMed. Covers a thin local client, ValueSet $expand with filters/ECL, CodeSystem $lookup, ConceptMap $translate, and pointing at Ontoserver / HAPI / tx.fhir.org. Use as the grounding step for OpenMed coding skills — turn an OpenMed entity span into a validated coded CodeableConcept —…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Querying a Terminology Service OpenMed deliberately **bundles no restricted vocabulary** — no SNOMED CT, RxNorm, LOINC, ICD-10, UMLS. So when an OpenMed entity span needs a *validated* code (the grounding step `exporting-to-fhir` references), you call a **FHIR terminology server** the user already operates, with their own license. This skill is the thin client the coding skills lean on. ## When to use Use it whenever a span must become a *coded* `CodeableConcept`, when you need to confirm a code is valid in a system, expand a ValueSet for a picklist, look up a display, or map between vocabularies. Triggers: "terminology server", "$validate-code", "$expand", "ValueSet", "ECL", "is this a valid SNOMED/LOINC/ RxNorm code", "translate ICD-10 to SNOMED". It sits between OpenMed NER and `exporting-to-fhir`. ## Bring your own server The four operations are standard FHIR; point the client at whichever server the user is licensed for: - **Ontoserver** (CSIRO) — production SNOMED CT/LOINC, full ECL. - **HAPI FHIR** terminology module — self-hosted. - **tx.fhir.org** — HL7 public server (open content only; **not** for licensed SNOMED/full LOINC, and not for PHI). …

How to install
mdr add maziyarpanahi/openmed/querying-terminology-service@sha256:d06957d4cda11232The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
