# Healthcare code set table

The Healthcare code set \[sn\_hcls\_code\_set\] table stores the details of code sets available in your ServiceNow instance.

## Key features

-   Enables HL7-based data tables including healthcare specialties, services, procedures, encounters.
-   Enables grouping of all HL7 data into code sets with attributes type, code, and name.
-   By default, supports the following HL7-based data tables:
    -   [Care specialty](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/valueset-c80-practice-codes.html)
    -   [Condition](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/valueset-condition-code.html)
    -   [Observation](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/valueset-observation-codes.html)
    -   [Procedure](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/valueset-procedure-code.html)
    -   [Allergy intolerance](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/valueset-allergyintolerance-code.html)
    -   [Encounter](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/valueset-encounter-type.html)
    -   [Body site](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/valueset-body-site.html)
    -   [Service type](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/valueset-service-type.html)
    -   [Service category](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/valueset-service-category.html)
    -   [Priority](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/valueset-request-priority.html)
    -   [Medication code](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/valueset-medication-codes.html)
    -   [Medication form code](https://www.hl7.org/FHIR/valueset-medication-form-codes.html)
    -   [Practitioner type](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/valueset-practitioner-role.html)

Role required to configure the table: sn\_hcls.admin.
