5.1 Plan, progress

D. Pertel

Approximately 165 new concepts will be submitted, mapped and modeled in SNOMED CT, along with remodeling of approximately 140 diet (regime/therapy) concepts for the release.

Able with difficulty concepts

6.1 Wording options

D. Pertel

Based upon feedback from the SNOMED editor, the concepts for Able with difficulty can be worded as follows:

Able to comply with self-monitoring regimen with difficulty (finding) or 

Able to adhere with self-monitoring regimen with difficulty (finding)

It is the preference of the NCP CPG to use the wording with adherence since this is more people-centered.
