Medical concepts are similar to medical terms; they describe information in a patient’s medical record, such as a condition they have, a doctor’s diagnosis, a prescription they are taking, or a procedure or measurement the doctor performed. In the Data Browser we refer to conditions, procedures, drugs, and measurements as electronic health record (EHR) domains. For example, a patient’s weight (measurement) is often taken during a routine medical examination (procedure) or a patient may be diagnosed with type II diabetes (condition) and prescribed metformin (drug) to treat the condition.
