Other terminologies and third party content

We provide access to Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR), other terminologies and third party content to support digital health and clinical data sharing alongside SNOMED CT-AU. This allows you to access terminology from a single source to streamline how your applications interact with terminology.

Third party reference sets

We provide access to the following third party reference sets as part of the SNOMED CT-AU monthly release. If you’d like further information about the content and how to use it, please contact the owners.
