   • You can't change a predefined value set. To add or remove values from a value set, create a new value set and associate it to the corresponding attribute. However, before updating the value set for an attribute, check whether you've created items and populated values for the attribute. Also, review all the related references. After updating the value set in a healthcare attribute, make sure that all related references are also updated.
