      ​Hello and thank you for your inquiry. SNOMEDCT code 32485007- Hospital admission (procedure) is included in both the "Non-Elective Inpatient Encounter” (OID: 2.16.840.1.113883.3.117.1.7.1.424) and "Encounter Inpatient (OID: 2.16.840.1.113883.3.666.5.307) value sets. Both of these value sets are extensional value sets containing an enumerated list of codes, meaning that only the codes explicitly listed in the value set definition are to be included and used by the respective measure.
       

      For example, the "Non-Elective Inpatient Encounter” (OID: 2.16.840.1.113883.3.117.1.7.1.424) value set contains the following two codes:

      183452005 Emergency hospital admission (procedure)

      32485007 Hospital admission (procedure)

       
      The "Encounter Inpatient (OID: 2.16.840.1.113883.3.666.5.307) values set contains the following three codes:

      183452005 Emergency hospital admission (procedure)

      8715000 Hospital admission, elective (procedure)

      32485007 Hospital admission (procedure)

      As noted in the attachment, the Hospital admission (procedure) code (32485007) does have a hierarchy of related child codes, however, these child codes are not included in the two extensional value sets provided in the example here and would not be used by the value set or the respective measure.

       
      As a reminder, value sets may contain overlapping codes but still have distinct differences for their particular use case.

       
      We hope this helps, please let us know if you have any questions.

      This code 32485007 - Hospital admission (procedure) is intended to capture the inpatient hospitalizations of “elective admission” and “emergency admission”?

       

      I ask this because this code is shared in both Value Sets "Non-Elective Inpatient Encounter (2.16.840.1.113883.3.117.1.7.1.424)“ and "Encounter Inpatient (2.16.840.1.113883.3.666.5.307)"

      Also, 3248007 - Hospital admission (procedure) includes codes descriptions (child) with emergency and elective in the “Descendant Tree of Hierarchy Code Relationship” (See the PDF attached).

       

      Guidance The "Non-elective Inpatient Encounter" value set intends to capture all non-scheduled hospitalizations. This value set is a subset of the "Inpatient Encounter" value set, excluding concepts that specifically refer to elective hospital admissions. Non-elective Inpatient Encounters include emergency, urgent, and unplanned admissions.
