Coded Simple - Vocabulary conformance

Only domains of the Coded Simple (CS) data type are being balloted for inclusion in the standard. By definition, the allowable values are limited to what is included in the standard. Changes to a CS value set require another ballot of the standard. Constraints that refer to CS value sets are bound to the vocabulary release that was in effect when the artifact in which the constraint is contained was ballot approved. Regarding domains using the Coded with Equivalent (CE) data type where the coding strength is CWE, they will grow/change more frequently than ballots via a harmonization process by the Vocabulary Technical Committee. After each harmonization, these domains will be published in a numbered release. An organization will document the vocabulary version in their statement of vocabulary conformance.
