But I have one remark about your point 4, about SNOMED. Just some
thinking.
I think I understand the original purpose why it is designed. Encoding
every clinical term and arranging them in graphs, and also offer
translations.
But they did not stop there, they defined a query language and a data
storage language, both capable of not only handling terms, but also
handling graph-based hierarchies and handling quantities.
Bert, can you point to the specifications for this - I was unaware that
SNOMED had re-invented the EHR...
The purpose still can be to offer an international usable storage, but
why then the query language? I think they want to offer a base for an
EHR, but they don't say that loud, so they do not scare away vendors.
But again, it does not keep me from my sleep, it is better for me to
concentrate on what is feasible now and have fun with that.
Best regards
Bert
