HL7 Proposed Content Change Requests for SNOMED-CT to IHTSDO

Notes

• IHTSDO will only accept content to the core from a single entity w/in HL7.
• Anything realm specific goes through an IHTSDO member country. If the realm specific content comes from a non-member country then HL7 needs to asses whether that content will be supported as an international specific, or sent back to the non-member country for inclusion in their own local content (HL7 needs a triage process).

Purpose

To draft a policy statement for endorsement by the HL7 Technical Steering Committee on submitting HL7 proposed content change requests for SNOMED-CT to IHTSDO

Sponsorship

Sponsored by the Vocabulary WG of the Foundation and Technology Steering Division [FTSD], at TSC Tracker # 1532, Project Insight ID #634.

Scope

2. How change requests can be prioritized
3. How change requests will be crafted (format)
