Topic | External SDO and Code System Issues HTA Content Pages Review | Continuous | Carol/Reuben | The HTA page for SNOMED-CT is not in the correct template. Each edition (US/UK/NL) has its own edition but they all use the same code system URI. The edition is differentiated by codeSystem.version according to the SNOMED URI Specification. Should we have separate pages for the editions? If we do that it implies that there should be separate resources in THO for the separate editions....which is currently not possible. We will try a "template" for a national edition (e.g. using "the NRC" for the code system owner). GPS/CPS is generally considered a value set expansion derived from the core. SNOMED update (Suzy) - January 2021 International Edition has just been released, with 3500+ new concepts. Some new COVID19 vaccine content is present and is in the CPS. SNOMED Business Meeting will be virtual - 19th-22nd April; working groups and advisory groups are scheduled to meet but are not yet in the calendar. NCI-T - Davera and Carol are following up with the NCI-T team ICD11 - Carol has started the process to build to get the metadata for this. |
Topic | HL7 Terminology Product Family | New(ish) | Julie | Can we come to a consensus to take forward to TSC? DEFERRED |
Topic | UTG/THO Update | Continuous | Jess | Workflow for implementing the external code system metadata in HTO will be a priority going forward. Reuben presented thoughts on restructuring/simplifying THO when looking for (external) content. |
Topic | HTA External Terminology Data Elements | New(ish) | Reuben | Reuben presented his slides (from November 2020) - copy of the slide presentation are at the top of this page What to do about OIDs? The HL7 OID Registry entry if not free of charge ($500 US) https://wiki.hl7.org/index.php?title=HL7_OID_Registry_Frequently_Asked_Questions. The need for OIDs is to support the installed base that already uses OIDs (e.g. V3). What should happen when there are multiple OIDs (e.g. for MIME types)? We should identify a preferred one and use the Naming System resource to keep them together. Eventually....we hope that THO will become the source of truth, rather than the OID registry. We were going to require that a code systems should have OIDs until Andrea showed us the cost. We will pick up here next meeting.....Members are requested to look at the email sent out by Reuben today and give as much feedback as possible. |
