Proposed new Freeset format

Proposed new Freeset format

 

Hi everyone

The old Freeset format (PDF with just SCTID + FSN listed) is not proving very versatile. It's currently used for 4 different products:

1. IPS (HL7)
2. DICOM
3. IHE
4. ERA/EDTA

Now that we've tested out the new format with GPS, how does everyone feel about standardising the format and migrating all freesets to the new format:

ConceptID     Active     FSN     USPreferredTerm

We also need to discuss possible use cases for including RF2 versions of each of the Freesets (including GPS), for those who do already have SNOMED to use?

Thanks very much!
Andrew
