For Review: Redesigning Map Reference Sets

For Review: Redesigning Map Reference Sets

Dear Modeling Advisory Group

The existing SNOMED CT map reference sets were originally designed for maps in the direction from SNOMED CT (the referencedComponentId) to another code system (the mapTarget).

SNOMED International would like to propose some changes to the map reference set patterns to better support maps in the other direction - i.e. from other code systems to SNOMED CT.

Could you please review the proposal, Redesigning Map Reference Sets to Support Maps in Either Direction, and add your comments within the document?

We will then discuss the feedback at the October business meetings.

Best Wishes, Peter
