Technical Committee

The Technical Committee is responsible for and will advise the Management Board on the specification and monitoring of the technical framework and tools for the development and maintenance of SNOMED CT and its related standards and the Association's other Terminology Products and framework for doing business.

 

The Technical Committee supports the mission of the IHTSDO by advising on all issues related to the technical framework and technology platform required for the development, maintenance and implementation of SNOMED CT and its related standards. 

 

The Committee will maintain a focus on pragmatic solutions to meet current IHTSDO and Member needs and will work to ensure that technology does not become a barrier to the IHTSDO achieving its goals.  For further information please read the terms of reference of the Technical Committee.
