Hi Vipul,
First, we would never define a specialized resource. As much as possible,
all resources are orthogonal and never exist in a hierarchical
relationship. Condition is a structure that includes a code (saying what
kind of condition), time of onset, who diagosed it, the patient who has the

SNOMED can not and should not map to FHIR resources. This is the
difference between clinical models that capture who, when where and why
with the medical terminologies like SNOMED that are only the what.
In HL7 V3, the information model has the entities in roles that
participate in acts. That

I think it would benefit for this discussion to be based on a concrete example
– to make sure we are on the same page:
Advance apologies for inappropriate use of terminology (as I am new to FHIR)
FHIR has a Resource called Condition.
Let’s say we define a new Resource called Diabetes (since
I agree with John – the best way forward is to have “purpose based ontologies”
and incrementally generalize them where there is clear value and need for doing
so.

If every FHIR element was mapped to a snomed term, then you could represent
that in RDF no problems.
VK> Would propose that FHIR could be the hub – and we could leverage RDF/OWL
constructs to map FHIR elements to Snomed, MedDRA, ICD11, RxNorm, etc.?
However the problem with this is tha
