The category a clinical task is filed under, used to organize tasks into bins in a user's view.
R4's open "Task Type" axis, given a controlled vocabulary that is expected to grow. These codes
classify for presentation only: they do not say whether a task carries a suggested resource (that
is a contained Bundle), whether it is a proposal or an order (Task.intent), or what produced
it (Task.requester). Bound extensibly from NexusEmrCoreClinicalTask.code.
MIGRATION. Nexus EMR writes these codes today under http://well.company/task-code, a system
this specification does not publish. It is live in stored Task.code codings and in code, and is
under migration to ../CodeSystem/nexus-task-code (FHIR-373). Write the
canonical system; expect both until the migration completes.
