SNOMED International and INSERM sign third consecutive collaboration agreement Back 16 Dec 2024 Back SNOMED International and INSERM, the French National Institute of Health and Medical Research , have renewed a collaboration agreement initially established in 2015. The focus of the agreement continues to be on ensuring that rare diseases can be identified and recorded in a standard way globally and this is supported by the inclusion of rare disorders nomenclature content from Orphanet in SNOMED CT. Orphanet, the INSERM unit dedicated to knowledge on rare diseases, maintains the Orphanet nomenclature of rare diseases (ORPHAcodes) and provides a multilingual database of information related to rare diseases and orphan drugs. Orphanet is a network of 40 countries, committed to improving the recognition, information and knowledge to improve rare diseases patients’ lives. The Orphanet nomenclature of rare diseases is a key resource facilitating primary and secondary use of rare disease data supporting care, research and public health. It is the only rare disease specific medical terminology, constantly evolving as knowledge evolves, with the contribution of rare disease experts from around the world. Orphanet operates under the joint authority of the French Ministry of Health and the National Institute of Health and Medical Research. INSERM is a public scientific and technological institute dedicated to biomedical research and human health, including rare diseases, and is involved in the entire range of activities from the laboratory to the patient's bedside and to public health. SNOMED CT is the most comprehensive, multilingual clinical healthcare terminology in the world. It is used in 80 countries, representing a third of the global population. SNOMED International is committed to supporting interoperability across the healthcare sector globally, facilitating terminology integration and improving safe patient care. Effective October 2024, the agreement builds on prior collaboration agreements (2015 and 2020) intended to raise the visibility of rare diseases in terminologies and promote interoperability between organizations and countries using different coding systems. The collaboration has already delivered Orphanet rare disease content into the SNOMED CT International release and a linkage between SNOMED CT and Orphanet. The new collaboration agreement continues the work to maintain and update the alignment between SNOMED CT and Orphanet. In addition, both organisations are committed to supporting those requiring and using rare disease content to facilitate better patient care, precision medicine and research. Implementation is key to enable a global picture of rare diseases to provide understanding and allow improved patient management. “The ongoing renewal of our collaboration with INSERM demonstrates that we are building on a foundation of trust and achievement that has successfully delivered SNOMED CT content and product improvement,” said SNOMED International CEO Don Sweete. “We look forward to another five years of successfully working together to achieve our mutual goals to globally improve and transform healthcare delivery for patients and clinicians in the rare diseases domain.” Katrien Scheerlinck, Senior Expert Health Standards at the Belgium National Release Centre, said, “The integration of rare diseases concepts from Orphanet offers a significant administrative simplification in our case. What currently requires additional administrative resources can now automatically flow into our scientific registers and statistics. Academic hospitals and research centres are extremely enthusiastic about this forward-looking solution and simplification." Theresa Barry, Clinical Terminology Architecture Lead, (Téarmaíocht Chliniciúil Ceannaire Ailtireachta), Ireland said, “Having the Orphanet codes in SNOMED made available with a mapping file is going to be transformational for the collection of data for rare diseases, allowing registries and statistics to seamlessly flow data that will benefit patients and researchers. This approach is widely acknowledged as being progressive and beneficial, to all stakeholders.” “This renewed collaboration with SNOMED International aligns with Orphanet’s strategy of contributing to the creation of an interoperable rare disease data ecosystem. ORPHAcodes are the common language between countries and between sectors, for a better recognition of rare diseases, data production and knowledge generation, bringing health data to registries and data spaces. This cannot be achieved without the sustained collaboration with SNOMED since 2015, a collaboration of which we are proud,” said Dr Ana Rath, Orphanet Director.

AMA and SNOMED International announce the validation of new SNOMED CT and CPT cross maps Back 28 Mar 2022 Back Since the date of issue, this information is now out of date and has been archived. It has been made available for reference. The American Medical Association (AMA) and SNOMED International announce the validation of the AMA’s Current Procedural Terminology (CPT ®) to SNOMED CT® cross maps. This validation exercise is the latest in a series of steps to enhance the bi-directional, rules-based cross maps that deliver better data transparency to enable heath systems to pinpoint efficiencies along care pathways and optimize resource utilization management to achieve better health outcomes. Tighter integration of the AMA’s CPT ® to SNOMED CT brings the power of two global medical terminologies to health systems seeking to gain resource utilization insights, administration analytics and physician compensation data linkage to their clinical documentation. Health systems deploying SNOMED CT will be able to leverage these connections to CPT content and unlock answers from their onslaught of complex clinical data more easily. The collaboration between AMA and SNOMED International aims to improve integration between the CPT and SNOMED CT terminologies by producing solutions for governments, hospitals, clinical practices, researchers and other stakeholders to help organize and utilize healthcare data better. As both terminologies continue to evolve to keep pace with modern medicine, they agree that an increasingly common medical language elevates the potential for even more medical innovation around the globe. The AMA and SNOMED International plan is to continue make health data enhancements to support medical innovation and use-case changes. Both organizations encourage health care stakeholders to join our conversation to share the new ideas, to explore new data paths and to evaluate how the combined terminologies can be used best to drive more value to their health care systems. “Health systems as a whole, require health-related data standards that are credible, comprehensive, and developed using collaborative, rigorous, and evidence-based processes,” said the AMA’s Lori Prestesater, Vice President of Health Solutions. “The AMA’s collaboration with SNOMED supports the shift to digitization and will help the healthcare industry optimize resources and increase efficiencies as it works towards achieving better patient outcomes, and improved patient and clinician experiences, all at a lower cost.” “As we continue to observe, there are many moving parts to achieving optimal information flow, data quality, and user satisfaction across regional, national and international healthcare systems,” offers Don Sweete, SNOMED International CEO. “Fulfilling a strategic objective to facilitate and integrate terminology standards and classifications, our ongoing mapping and validation activities with AMA is a prime example of two organizations working together to enhance and streamline the health and care ecosystem for the benefit of users and care recipients.” Both organizations are dedicated to the pursuit of unambiguous exchange of clinical information. Together, they seek to address the health system’s emerging need for greater integration in support of interoperability as well as health and resource data analytics.

Accessing pathology cancer data within and across healthcare institutions is problematic. Manual curation of large quantities can take years. Factors including lack of normalization of grading and staging systems and non-standard narrative reporting formats hinder easy access to the data. However, these data could become readily available for research using newly published SNOMED CT content developed specifically for use in structured pathology reporting using data elements from the College of American Pathologists (CAP) Cancer Protocols and the International Collaboration on Cancer Reporting (ICCR) datasets . As a demonstration of the power of using SNOMED CT to create an interoperable data repository across multiple institutions, encoded cancer pathology reports and ancillary data for resections of invasive cancer of the breast following administration of neoadjuvant therapy were combined from two large academic medical centers[ME1] for 2021- present. Extracted data included histologic type, biomarker profile, grade, and pathologic assessment of the response to therapy for the tumors. These data were stored in a repository structured on the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP) model for further analysis. This presentation establishes a reproduceable methodology that can be used to extract, combine and represent pathology data from two separate EHR systems for subsequent analysis.
