I think we need to give users the option of doing the ETL and including a “source value" and “source vocab” in the clinical codes table. It should not be there by default, but it will make the table easier for people to use if they want it. I realize it is one join away by using the vocab table, but I believe it will help make the model understandable at first. And our first order of business is to convince people that this is a better way forward.
