-^Field^Required^Type^Description^+This proposal does not involve a change to the CDM schema.
  
----- +=== Background ​=== 
-=== Use Cases ===+A phenotype definition (patient cohort) may include Diagnostic or Medication Code. However, it can also include Procedural code. e.g., patients who had chest X ray done.  ​
  
 +Whereas OHDSI is using SNOMED for Diagnoses and LOINC for lab, there is no "​international"​ terminology for procedures.
 +Some Asian countries mapped their procedure codes to CPT4. However CPT4 requires a license. For new data partners within OHDSI, the license requirement may be troubling.
  
 +Possible terminologies may be ICD10PCS or SNOMED (specifically,​ procedure codes within SNOMED). Snomed does not offer the needed granularity.

 +----
 +=== Use Cases ===
 +Allow procedures to be part of phenotype definitions.
