SNOMED-CT

Medical Mosaic’s approach of using innovative and practical skills to realise benefit and make change happen is evident in our approach to SNOMED CT. We understand that SNOMED CT does not sit alone; it forms part of the overall technical solution to support clinical and business change, from which the NHS will derive considerable clinical and business benefit. As such we provide engagement at both user and technical levels.

At the user level we work to ensure that the benefits sought from the implementation of SNOMED CT are understood and changed processes are correctly implemented.
At the technical level we look to support the development of both direct healthcare processes and secondary uses to ensure that technical solutions are being developed in line with SNOMED CT standards.

Medical Mosaic is at the fore in the emerging development of clinical content within the NHS and has relationships with expert SNOMED consultants. We are leading SNOMED CT subset development within the NHS CfH SNOMED in the national Structured Electronic Records Programme and have undertaken leading edge work in the application of current technical guidance for analysis of SNOMED CT encoded data.
