LOINC long common name : Tobacco smoking status for tobacco smoker;
LOINC short name : Tobacco smoke status.smoker;
LOINC description : The frequency of tobacco use for known tobacco users. This term is a subset of the
existing LOINC term 72166-2 Tobacco smoking status NHIS. This term was created for,
but is not limited in use to, the Joint Commission's tobacco treatment eCQM, which
uses separate OIDs for each recommended answer and associated SNOMED CT code rather
than a single OID for the answer list as a whole. The answer OIDs that are available
as of the date this term was created are specified in the description for each answer
in the LOINC answer list, and new OIDs will be added as they become available and
are reported to the LOINC development team.;
