UDS+ IG References US Core v6.1.0

[ljtucker]

As shown in valueset-ref-list.json, among other files, the UDS+ IG references US Core v6.1.0, NOT v6.0.0, for the following valueset references:

• US Core Procedure Code
• Us Core Laboratory Test Code
• Us Core Encounter Type
• Us Core Discharge Disposition
• Us Core Condition Code
• Us Core Clinical Result Observation Category
• Us Core Simple Language
• Us Core Detailed Ethnicity
• Us Core Detailed Race
• Us Core OMB Ethnicity
• Us Core OMB Race
• Us Core USPS Alphabetic State Codes

This issue is being seen in the UDS+ Inferno Server: *Note that the value-set url it is referencing is explicitly piped to v6.1.0.

Either these references need to be redirected to v6.0.0, or the IG needs to be updated to state we are using v6.1.0 for these value-sets.

UDS+ 1.0.1 is dependent on US Core 6.1.0 as per the attachment below, not sure what is the issue. Is there a reference in the IG which says 6.0.0 ? ![Uploading Screen Shot 2024-01-04 at 12.52.35 PM.png…]()

@nbashyam Was upgrading to v6.1.0 part of the v1.0.1 update? There are two instances in the IG that suggest we are still using v6.0.0:

• The header for the a table column at https://fhir.org/guides/hrsa/uds-plus/dataelements.html#analysis-of-the-zip-code-data-table-table-3a-table-3b-table-4-and-table-6a states "Differences with US Core - 6.0.0/USCDIv3"
• The last time we changed what US Core instance we were dependent on happened at https://fhir.org/guides/hrsa/uds-plus/changes.html#changes-made-from-030-to-040. We set a precedent of notifying users of this change with the line "Changed USCore dependency from 5.0.1 to 6.0.0 (USCDI v3)." This same kind of line is not present in the change log for v1.0.1
