Clinical Terminology - Guidance for People and Processes v1.0

All SNOMED CT-AU and AMT resources, including implementation collateral, are now available to download from the document library on the National Clinical Terminology Service website.

This toolkit provides a short introduction or ‘quick start’ reference for developers wishing to work with SNOMED CT-AU Reference Sets (Refsets). It includes sample applications built on Oracle’s Java platform and built on the Microsoft .NET Framework that demonstrate importing and using reference sets.

This document provides guidance for those involved in adopting Australian Medicines Terminology (AMT) v2 or greater or the Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine, Clinical Terms® – Australian Release (SNOMED CT AU). This guidance may be used to minimise clinical safety risks and maximise the benefits associated with using AMT or SNOMED CT-AU.
