Mayo Clinic Open Source CTS Project

Background

• HL7 / Mayo Clinic
  • Health Level Seven (HL7), an American National Standards Institute (ANSI) -accredited Standards Developing Organization (SDO) operating in the healthcare arena, recently published a standard for API’s to access clinical terminologies. This specification, which is called the Common Terminology Services (CTS), defines a set of interfaces that can be used to discover and query terminology content. The scope of the CTS specification was limited to (a) read-only use cases and (b) only the use cases that were necessary to satisfy near-term HL7 requirements.
