Usage of SNOMED CT Codes in IHE Profiles

IHE International has asked each domain to list each SNOMED code that is used from the value sets of each profile. This is to be added to the cross domain Google spread sheet listing Domain, SNOMED Code, Display Name, Profile, and Value Set. This is to allow IHE to license the codes for their ongoing usage. Chris Melo has reviewed the CPN profile. Some of the list of codes lack the information and may need further work.

• Next Steps - A volunteer is needed to review the following profiles: [Everything but CPN] and add them to the list created by Chris Melo, matching the columns provided by IHE NA. The deadline is TBD.
