Why SNOMED isn’t enough for complete clinical documentation
Don’t settle for “good enough” clinical documentation. Learn why robust clinical terminology is key for accurate and seamless clinical data capture.
To ensure that documentation is accurate and complete, clinical staff often face complicated workflows that require more time searching and documenting – and less time spent on patient care.
Numerous standardized code systems, such as SNOMED CT® and ICD-10, are required to support various healthcare functions. Each system has its own unique set of rules and guidelines which may lead to inconsistent and incomplete, patient records.
IMO Core standardizes clinical terminology and code mappings in EMRs to simplify provider documentation, capture more complete and accurate problems and diagnoses, and increase interoperability, while supporting regulatory requirements
