I'd index on codingSchemeName and property and not worry so much about
propertyValue. I rather doubt that that part of the query is adding a
performance-critical amount of selectivity --- and even if you could fit
propertyValue into the index, you'd have to jump through hoops to get a
case-insensitive search on it when the other columns are case-sensitive.
