SNOMED CT enabled solutions
PHAST encourages the creation of a more effective and interoperable French healthcare IT system by easing the integration and implementation of SNOMED CT into vendor applications. As part of this strategy, PHAST has built a new service, IOct, to enable care institutions to encode their clinical information as SNOMED CT concepts in a way that can be processed automatically by their applications.
PHAST has brought a set of initiatives to support SNOMED CT implementation:
- Translation of more than 5,000 SNOMED CT concepts.
- Implementation of a French browser which makes possible for the healthcare professionals to explore the terminology online.
- Production of interoperable metathesauri which include SNOMED CT content in the field of medication (IOmed), medical devices (IOmd) and laboratory (IOlab) workflows.
- Organization of training sessions for software vendors and healthcare institutions.
- Creation of a FHIR terminology server, STS, which delivers terminologies like SNOMED CT and LOINC, as well as concept maps and value sets leveraging various international and national terminologies. STS supports a full implementation of the Expression Constraint Language (ECL) for defining SNOMED CT value sets by intension.
