Got it. Thanks for pointing that out. I do remember that about SNOMED --that it is a reference terminology. I'll go back and re-look at what I did, but I'm pretty sure I was using only records that have the term (disorder) in them.

Hi Debbie,

I'm working on an Infoway-funded project to standardize terminology from primary care EMRs. We're one of the VIP (Vendor Innovation Program) grantees.

We are cleaning up data retrospectively and also thinking about cleansing data from AI scribes. We're also looking at developing an EMR-like product.

Would love to get your thoughts on the various perspectives.

Thanks Alana,

I've downloaded the ICD-10 mapping and have used it already.

Would love to get an orientation to it to make sure I'm using it properly.

Hello Karim - nice to virtually meet you.

I'm Alana Lane, a Program Lead for the Classifications and Terminologies team at CIHI. We've developed a map from SNOMED CT CA to ICD-10-CA, as well as ICD-9, for use in primary care. These maps are based om terminology commonly used in primary care and may be of interest in your work, I'd be happy to connect and walk you through the maps if that would be helpful, as well as our mapping methodology.

Best,
Alana Lane
