Upon identi - fying one or more such broader elements, the system then may present the user with attribute selections associated with each element in order to obtain the desired post-coordination terms. The resulting combination of a broader element with its relevant attributes maps to a concept in the electronic medical ontology that is fully pre-coordinated with respect to a third electronic medical ontology. 11111111111111011101111111111101011111011101110111010101111111111111111110111111 W O 20 17 / 13 2145 Al
