 Laboratory Test Status
DescriptionDescribes the status of a laboratory test concept.

For example:
Active - Concept is active
Trial- Concept is experimental in nature. Use with caution as the concept and associated attributes may change
Discouraged - Concept is not recommended for current use. New mappings to this concept are discouraged; although existing mappings may continue to be valid in context. Wherever possible, the supersiding concept is indicated in the Laboratory Result Map To field and should be used instead.
Deprecated - Concept is deprecated. Concept should not be used, but it is retained for historical purposes. Wherever possible, the superseding concept is indicated in the Laboratory Result Map To field and should be used both for new mappings and updating existing implementations.
