Definition of "plan specification" and subtype "study design"

[zhengj2007]

I have some issues with plan specification (ps), namely the fact that the ps tells its bearer what to do. Actually I have no issues was that, but where do we put a kind of specification that tells people (which are not the bearer of the specification) how to act, namely a coding schema (an information artefact telling people how to code medical services, procedure and supplies). Regarding this problem, I was wondering whether "study design" really is a subtype to plan specification.

Any ideas?

Best, Mathias
