Statement of problem as requested or initially identified
Currently Care Plan concepts reside in the qualifier value hierarchy under 278448002 | Care plan (qualifier value)
New request inactivate the concepts in the qualifier hierarchy and replace with new concepts in the Record Artifact hierarchy.
Presented to the Editorial Advisory Group Jan. 20th, 2017 wherein the request was deemed acceptable with two provisos as follows:
that the FSN become X care plan document (record artifact) ie. Addional work “document” added to make it clear this is a name of a document and not the procedure creating a care plan document.
To ensure international acceptance, that this be presented to the CMAG and their approval for the proposal be granted.
Relevance to International edition
Will align the core concepts with the meaning of Care Plans as set out in ISO13940 https://contsys.org/package/Healthcare_planning
Definition of a care plan as:
“dynamic, personalized plan including identified needed healthcare activities, health objectives and healthcare goals, relating to one or more specified health issues in a healthcare process”
Intended for use by multiprofessionals, it is a
“care plan encompassing healthcare provider activities performed by healthcare professionals having different healthcare professional entitlements”
Related changes impacted by this content development request
Inactivate concepts nested under:
Create new concepts in the Record artifact hierarchy
278448002 | Care plan (qualifier value)
Agreed scope statement
All concepts with descriptions of care plans.
Identify additional changes
Need to review other hierarchies in case any of the existing have been used in relationship to other concepts.
Solution proposed
Depends on outcome of CMAG meeting.
Stakeholder input
Submission to the Editorial Advisory Group, January 2017 for initial discussion – approved pending
Acceptance by submitter (currently NHS ) of change in FSN to include “document” i.e. FSN = X care plan document (record artifact)
Approval by the CMAG of the use case for this term as internationally acceptable.
Impact assessment
Currently in the workflow for authoring July 2017 release. Some added work to inactivate existing qualifier value concepts.
Risk assessment
Not providing SNOMED implementers with required content.
Minimal impact to terminology as not many concepts are affected by the inactivation at this time.
If we continue to add these in the qualifier hierarchy then any future changes will have wider impact.
