SNOMED International intends to deprecate Concept Non Current (CNC) indicators in the 2025-04-01 International Edition of SNOMED CT. The plan is to stop adding these indicators to active descriptions when the concept they are attached to is made inactive. Additionally, all currently active CNC indicators will be made inactive. They will be left in place as inactive components.
This deprecation is not expected to have any impact on existing SNOMED CT implementations but will instead simplify the product and reduce associated maintenance costs.
