Having said that, my understanding is that SNOMED are very willing to
be generous in terms of vendor/org level licensing in such a situation.
I know that they have a license for organizations in a country which is
a non-member.
And for one organization, this is mostly not very expensive.
I am not sure about the exact price, but I remember that it was
something around 1000 Euro a year, and there are special arrangements
for organizations which are in poor countries, or academical purposes.
But if the organization uses their software in/together with other
organizations, like hospitals (f.e. a laboratory-organization), then the
hospitals also profit from SNOMED, and also need a license, when they
are in non-member-country.
And then the total costs can become too high.
A political solution for SNOMED would make it more useful, like being
governed by the WHO, or something like that. I think and hope this won't
take long to happen.
