Is it correct that URGENTCARE has value "AMB" not "EMER"?

WELLNESS("AMB"), AMBULATORY("AMB"), OUTPATIENT("AMB"), INPATIENT("IMP"), EMERGENCY("EMER"), URGENTCARE("AMB");

The ValueSet comes from FHIR: http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/v3/ActEncounterCode/vs.html#expansion

There is no explicit 1:1 mapping for urgentcare... If you have a better suggestion, we'll consider it.
