Blog: Not a Member? SNOMED International provides barrier-free access to many resources Back 27 May 2021 Back By Shelley Lipon Chief Customer Officer One of the things I’m most proud of at SNOMED International is our commitment to improving global health. We do that in part by making some of our products and resources available at no cost to a wide range of users, including lower-income countries and non-profit, charitable and humanitarian organizations, so that money is not a barrier to the use of structured terminology within developing digital health systems. Did you know, for example, that any country the World Development Bank has classified as low income that is interested in implementing SNOMED CT can do so by submitting a request through our help desk ? So far, we have provided four licenses for low-income countries: two for Ethiopia, one for Rwanda and one for Yemen. In fact, all our Membership fees are based on a fair-share Gross National Income (GNI)-based allocation methodology, meaning even low-middle income countries will pay less than countries with higher GNI. Not-for-profit organizations that want to use SNOMED CT non-commercially for the betterment of people living in rural areas and/or poorer countries, and research groups or organizations conducting non-commercial research that contributes to broadening our collective understanding and knowledge base, can also apply for a SNOMED CT licence by completing an application form and submitting it for our consideration. For example, Safe Surgery South Africa (SSSA), a clinician-driven not-for-profit research institution, is using a no-fee SNOMED CT license as part of a study to measure the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on surgical outcomes. We do all of this because we, along with our Members, are committed to investing in the mission and vision of SNOMED International and enabling the broader availability of our products and services. Open products As well, we also make freely available the Global Patient Set (GPS), a managed collection of existing SNOMED CT reference sets, to enable use of structured clinical data without barriers, and to support preferred conditions for interoperability. We are continuously updating and adding content to the GPS, which we publish every September. Last year we added to the GPS all of the COVID-19 and related SNOMED CT content, as well as social determinants of health content that we added to the 2020 International Edition releases. In addition, we offer useful code libraries, examples of using SNOMED CT and the source to all of our tools , including the popular SNOMED CT Browser and Snowstorm SNOMED CT Terminology Server. Free educational resources Non-members can also visit our e-learning platform, where they will find a number of open courses and resources, including starter tutorials, presentations, course information and guides, our document library and past SNOMED CT Expo presentations. As well, anyone can register to participate in the clinical, implementation and research webinars we offer at no cost, or watch recordings of those sessions on our YouTube channel . In addition to our own resources, we also offer a central location where you can access national terminology resources our Member countries make freely available. Contributing SNOMED CT content to other products SNOMED International also provides subsets of its content for free in various non-SNOMED International products. In 2016, we signed an agreement with the DICOM Standards Committe e to include SNOMED CT codes and descriptions in the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standard. And in 2019, we signed an agreement with Health Level Seven International (HL7) to include a ‘Free for Use’ set of SNOMED CT coded concepts within the HL7 International Patient Summary (IPS). The IPS free set consists of more than 8,000 SNOMED CT terms for use in implementations of the HL7 Clinical Document Architecture Release 2 and FHIR IPS Implementation Guides, both of which are predominantly used across Europe. As well, SNOMED International creates maps from SNOMED CT to other code systems, classifications or terminologies , including the World Health Organization’s International Classification of Diseases (ICD) 10, to support our Members and other stakeholders that use these products alongside SNOMED CT. Supporting SNOMED CT vendors Another benefit we offer non-Members is our SNOMED CT marketplace , where vendors that have incorporated SNOMED CT into their products can have their products listed, providing them greater visibility within the SNOMED CT community. Currently, there are 46 vendors in that marketplace. Why is it important to provide different options to access SNOMED CT? Realizing SNOMED International’s vision of “one global language of health that enables improved patient outcomes” depends on supporting and enabling our Members and others to access, implement and employ the knowledge and tools they need, free from financial barriers. Making products and resources available at no cost can support the nascent use of clinical terminology within a developing health system and the sharing of patient summary information across borders with existing SNOMED International Member countries or affiliates. Visit us for more information on becoming a SNOMED International Member. Look for regular updates from SNOMED International on our products, services and many resources as we continue to expand and improve SNOMED CT and enable its use worldwide.

As a key component of the Quality Improvement project, the SI Content Team is engaged in the ongoing evaluation and refinement of the 71388002 |Procedure (procedure)| hierarchy. This process aims to standardize and normalize content, ensuring strict compliance with established Editorial Guidance and Policy to uphold terminology structural quality, consistency, accuracy and usability. Furthermore, user feedback is systematically analyzed to optimize modeling patterns, resulting in the creation and dissemination of updated Model Patterns, Editorial Guidance and Templates designed to support SCT authors and implementers. Learn more EMEA A Semantic Strategy is a key element of interoperability in electronic healthcare: A proposal for an approach in Germany Data interoperability is a crucial element for the success of a digitalization strategy. Achieving data interoperability requires clear semantic and syntactic rules. Therefore, digitalization in healthcare should be accompanied by a semantic strategy to outline a foundation of agreed reference coding systems and valuesets for specific domains and segments of the electronic health record. The electronic healthcare system in Germany is evolving. With legal agreement for a European Health Data Space in 2025 also a harmonization in Europe will be pursued. The BfArM as the National Competence Center for medical terminologies has issued a position paper, which is currently discussed with stakeholders. The paper proposes a gradual convergence of standardized documentation in healthcare towards a binding set of basic coding systems and valuesets. Requirements should be identified and semantic reference sources agreed by the domain expert community. A consented semantic framework will support users and software providers in their decision-making and aims to reduce the diversity of individual solutions. A long-term strategy will give decision-makers certainty in their planning and will support a gradual alignment of electronic data towards a mandatory set of basic coding systems. A central asset in this strategy is a central terminology server for the healthcare domain. It will act as a single “source of truth” and reliable platform for semantic references. A central platform will serve as “on-stop-shop” for automatic technical distribution and consumption and also as reliable long-time versioning archive during the live-cycle of electronic healthcare record items. Learn more Asia Pacific An approach to monitor obstetric clinical indicators using SNOMED CT encoded clinical notes This use case describes the automation of monitoring obstetric clinical indicators using SNOMED CT encoded clinical notes. The semi-structured clinical notes were extracted and encoded with SNOMED CT using a natural language processing system called MyHarmony. A tri-partite arrangement was established, which involved the informaticians at the Health Informatics Centre (Pusat Informatik Kesihatan, PIK) in the Ministry of Health Malaysia, the clinicians headed by the head of Malaysia’s obstetric speciality, and the Information Technology (IT) engineers of the hospitals involved. Each party has specific roles and responsibilities. There were four benefits identified with using this approach: (1) No data entry required. (2) Saved time and resources due to the automation process for data submission, codification, and reporting. Hence, there is no effect on clinical workflow or requires additional workload. (3) Richer analysis due to the granularity of the data written in free text. (4) Timely result which enables clinicians to monitor and intervene faster. However, there were several expected challenges during this project. First is the incompleteness of the documentation by the doctors which need can be improved with continuous awareness. the documentation and the resulting reports. Secondly, the team must standardize the semi-structured clinical notes from different hospitals. Therefore, it is important that the informatician understand the clinical requirement to ensure the right data are extracted by the IT engineers. This approach will be introduced to other clinical specialities so they can experience the same benefit when using SNOMED CT. Learn more APAC Automatic Standardization of Chinese Clinical Terms to SNOMED CT Based on Large Language Model Technology This study presents a method for the automatic standardization of Chinese clinical terms to SNOMED CT using large language model (LLM) technology. To address the challenges of mapping Chinese medical terminology to standardized international vocabularies, the research constructs a dataset covering diverse clinical terms and fine-tunes a pretrained large model (DeepSeek-V3) to improve the accuracy and efficiency of term mapping. Experimental results demonstrate that the LLM-based approach significantly outperforms traditional rule-based or dictionary-based methods. It effectively handles complex cases such as polysemy and term variations, while also supporting contextual understanding to ensure precise term alignment. This technology has the potential to enhance clinical data integration and interoperability, providing standardized terminology support for intelligent healthcare systems and medical research applications. Learn more EMEA Digital metrology in laboratory medicine: a call for bringing order to chaos to facilitate precision diagnostics Laboratory medicine is faced with rapid developments in data exchange, secondary use of data and AI. Safe exchange of laboratory data requires a suitable terminology standard. NPU, LOINC and SNOMED CT are increasingly used for this purpose, but none of these terminology standards can currently accommodate safe exchange across the full spectrum of conventional laboratory data. Furthermore, rapid technological advances in, amongst others, the ‘omics’ area will enforce a shift towards precision diagnostics. These emerging technologies demand an appropriate and future-proof terminology standard. Given the current and future challenges in laboratory terminologies, we here present a concept for digital metrology in laboratory medicine. Terminology standards used in laboratory medicine should be adjusted to the current state of science to allow safe data exchange and interpretation. Essential test information for safe data exchange and secondary use of data now and in the future entails the full spectrum of pre-pre-analysis to post-post-analysis. Major improvements needed include sufficient coding detail for the molecular form of the measurand and information on metrological traceability. Furthermore, it will become essential to indicate interrelationships between measurands. Herefore, integration with established taxonomies like UniprotKB would allow improved identification of interrelationships between measurands and linkage with scientific information for multidisciplinary data science. Hence, laboratory data can further gain in specificity and value. The time has come to lay the basis for safe data exchange in the era of precision diagnostics. A consensus for digital metrology in laboratory medicine will be essential to move forward with health data exchange. Learn more APAC Mapping Clinical Terms to Standard Terminology for Multi-institutional Research Platform: Mapping Principles This project focuses on the principles of mapping clinical terms to standard terminology for a multi-institutional research platform. A hybrid mapping approach, combining automated and manual methods, ensures accurate and consistent terminology alignment. Strict mapping guidelines and 1:1 mapping principles are implemented to address terminology variations and data format differences. This study highlights the critical importance of precise terminology mapping for reliable multi-institutional research. Learn more EMEA Snomed CT for substance based prescriptions We will show how SNOMED CT Clinical Drugs are used to represent generic information about medicines to enable substance based prescription, including how adjustments are made to accomodate clinical needs where regulatory data falls short. Learn more EMEA The EU QUANTUM Data Holder's Maturity Model and its application in health data management The EU QUANTUM Data Holder’s Maturity Model represents a significant advancement in the assessment and enhancement of health data quality and management maturity across Europe. Developed as part of the QUANTUM initiative, this model provides a structured approach to evaluating data holders’ capabilities in managing health data, ensuring alignment with the European Health Data Space (EHDS) regulations. This presentation will explore the development, methodology, and key findings of the model, highlighting its relevance for standardisation, interoperability and governance within health data ecosystems. Attendees will gain insight into the model’s application and its role in fostering a more integrated and reliable data-sharing environment. Learn more EMEA Using Graph Databases to Harmonize Multi-Center Data with SNOMED CT Effective data sharing across institutions is crucial in low prevalence disease research to achieve statistical power and improve clinical outcomes. However, independently created clinical databases often lack semantic interoperability due to non-standardized terminologies. This project takes advantage of an implementation of SNOMED CT within a Neo4j graph database (https://github.com/IHTSDO/snomed-database-loader/), utilizing graph-based algorithms to calculate semantic distances between clinical concepts. By applying the shortest-path algorithm, we significantly reduce manual review efforts required for data harmonization. This implementation facilitates efficient and accurate identification of equivalent or closely related clinical variables across diverse research databases, thus enhancing multi-center collaboration and interoperability in low prevalence disease studies. Learn more EMEA Using SNOMED CT to build a reference data catalogue for hospital resource management In the wake of the Covid crisis, vendors have been rolling out hospital resource management software to help French hospitals improve the use of their medical resources (beds, staff, imaging equipment, ...). The core principle of which is to link health conditions to hospital resources, so that each new patient registration results in appropriate booking of resources. Currently, hospitals are required to define their own list of health conditions, a process that has many shortcomings ranging from costly delays to lack of interoperability. PHAST's goal is to create a national list, TIO, that vendors can integrate quickly and securely, and that hospitals can easily customise and maintain.
