CodeSystem ATC-WHO is missing #61

Open jpwiedekopf opened 7 months ago

jpwiedekopf commented 7 months ago

The CodeSystem "ATC-WHO" (canonical http://www.whocc.no/atc) is not represented in the package and not available in FHIR format on the Internet.

A strategy for converting the CodeSystem from the native format, or a placeholder CodeSystem should be created should converting the CodeSystem not be possible due to technical or license reasons (in this case, the CodeSystem and the ImplementationGuide should describe how to acquire the master file to implementers).

The ATC Index for WHO is purchasable from https://www.whocc.no/atc_ddd_index_and_guidelines/order/, but the licensing terms are unclear if representing the resource as FHIR is permitted:
