Researchers &
Knowledge
Producers
Leveraging the unique power of clinical concepts and defining relationships, SNOMED CT helps Researchers and Knowledge
Producers integrate other classification schemes and quickly create data, information, evidence, and knowledge. These artefacts can
then support point-of-care analytics, population analytics, management analytics, as well as research to benefit the decision-making
of Policy Makers, Care Providers, Patients/Citizens and other stakeholders. Using SNOMED CT also allows Researchers to accelerate
the publication of their research and the actioning of their findings.
