À propos de nous

What is the Health Terminologies Community?

The Health Terminologies Community is a place to share and learn about new and existing implementations of, and updates to, health-related terminologies, terminology subsets, and classification systems used in Canada.

Members actively contribute to discussions and share information and advice related to the implementation, development, maintenance, and use of multiple vocabularies in various health-related projects.

This community is responsive to its membership, actively encouraging, welcoming, and relying on the submission of discussion topics, agenda items, and other items such as education and vendor engagement from its members.

The community will engage and collaborate with other groups or InfoCentral communities on broader related topics when relevant.

Major reference terminologies and classification systems of interest include, but are not limited to:

SNOMED CT
LOINC/pCLOCD
CCDD (Canadian Clinical Drug Dataset)
ICD-10-CA
ATC

Canada Health Infoway is the National Release Centre (NRC) for SNOMED CT, pCLOCD, and HL7 in Canada.

The Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) is responsible for the development and publication of ICD-10-CA (the Canadian modification of ICD-10), as well as CCI (Canadian Classification of Health Interventions).

To become a member of this community select Join Group in the Group Menu.

If you have an idea for a community, working group, or project that will drive interoperability forward, let us know by contacting us.

SI – Inactivation of

Thank you Jon for this additional information which could indeed be very useful to take into consideration during future development/implementations. Elena, as you already mentioned, the concept 435941000124100 |Patient given medical advice (situation)| is not affected and considering that it is only one concept that would be impacted by these changes, we suggest you submit a request for new concept via InfoRMS for us to fully assess how we can support your requirements, taking into account your particular use case. Thank you,

Hi Jon, Unfortunately, we are significantly behind in the modernization of our information systems, and we are often constrained by what the vendor is willing to implement and the costs involved. In short, we're doing our best to juggle all these...

Hi Elena, Thank you for your feedback. SI's plan is to inactivate these concepts because they are ambiguous and they propose to instead create a new concept "history of x" for cases where it is a procedure performed in the past. But there are s...

Hi, In this section, our unit uses concepts that will be desactivated. Clients or partners do not have an application that allows post-coordination. If these concepts are created under "history of", we are concerned that the essence may be lost in f...
