  • N = Navigation
  • O = Ontologic
  • U = Unreviewed (or Undecided)

Preferred Name

Info

For example, if the group working on CRCH subset wants to add another unit of measure to the nutrition subset that already exists in BiomedGT, they can select that unit and add CRCH as a coding scheme. To add a second coding scheme, click Add Another.
