In Ontario, we've been using the "PP" code for information on paramedics who administer Covid-19 immunizations.
I would like to echo Sisira's request: please keep / don't deprecate the “PP" (Paramedic Practitioner) code in the “HealthcareProviderRoleType” value set and the SCPTYPE code system.
Email to the InfoDesk sent.

Hi Tarek,
Would it be possible to add these new terms to SNOMED CT? We want to start using one and only one code system (if possible). SNOMED CT has a lot of functionality that other code systems don't have, like historical information, reasons for change, subsets, etc. etc.
Why not use SNOMED CT even more and just make sure it's as complete as possible for Canadian stakeholders?
Respectfully,
-Anibal

Hello Tarek,
NL Provider Registry System and Regional Meditech System contain the provider role type “Paramedic Practitioner”.
Therefore, please keep (not to deprecate) the “PP - Paramedic Practitioner” code in the “HealthcareProviderRoleType” subset.
As advised, I have sent an email to InfoDesk.
Thanks,

Hello Community users,
Canada Health Infoway received a request to deprecate the “Paramedic Practitioner” concept, (code: PP) from the “HealthcareProviderRoleType” subset and the SCPTYPE code system.
According to the stakeholder request, there has been a consolidation in the profession using the terms PCP (Primary Care Paramedic), ACP (Advanced Care Paramedic), and CCP (Critical Care Paramedic) dating back to 2001.
We kindly ask that you let us know if you are still using this concept and/or if have any objections to it being removed from both the subset and the code system by sending your feedback to our InfoDesk: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. by end of your business day on Tuesday January 4th , 2022.
If we don’t hear back from you by this date, we will procced with removing the concept from the subset and the code system and plan to publish an updated version of the “HealthcareProviderRoleType” subset in the Terminology Gateway shortly thereafter.
