Proposed allowed qualifier values within the International release

Background:

The table below provides the following information:

  • The number of times the concept has been used as a qualifier within the current International Release

  • The qualifier value

  • The proposed status of the qualifier value within the International Release



The proposed status indicates whether these qualifier values will be allowed as part of a pre-coordinated concept within the International Release and will therefore determine whether SNOMED International will accept requests for new content that use these qualifier values.

Local NRCs will be able to use those qualifier values which are deemed as not allowed within the International Release as part of either post-coordinated or pre-coordinated concepts within their National Extension.

Many of the disallowed qualifier values relate to content which may be used within scheduling systems and it was felt that such systems are likely to be organised in ways which are specific to individual realms and therefore not easily shared across national and international boundaries. These qualifier values may be used by local NRC's but will not be pre-coordinated within the International Core.

Action:

CMAG are asked to consider the statuses indicated below and provide feedback if they are likely to give rise to any specific issues within their realm.
