TerminologyUpdateProcess

Introduction

This page documents the process of when new terminology content will be provided in ART-DECOR. This will include terminologies such as SNOMED and LOINC.

Usually a Terminology Report check will be perfomed before creating a publication, as part of Preflighting publication and quality checks but could of course be run more often.

SNOMED update schedule
