Our innovative approach gives healthcare professionals and facilities full autonomy to use and share health data.
With the publication of the PON/COURY report in 2018, the State acknowledged France delay in the digitization process of the healthcare system, and to fill it, initiated a digital shift in health, social and medico-social sectors. The interoperability base of the French health system became a critical issue.
The digital shift implies a semantic shift with the adoption of international reference terminologies, such as SNOMED CT clinical terminology that France decided to adopt in January 2022, LOINC observation terminology, and the standardized vocabularies of the European Medicines Agency.
Consequently, the ecosystem is reorganized with the semantic interoperability resources centralized by Agence du Numérique en Santé (ANS) and made available to all stakeholders through its Multi-Terminology Server (SMT).
Healthcare professionals and organizations will be able to map their data to standardized vocabularies that are gradually being made enforceable, thus opening the door to the sharing of health data with an unambiguous meaning, across practitioners involved in patient care.
To contribute very concretely to this semantic shift Use&Share supports healthcare professionals and software vendors in normalizing health data, thus promoting the deployment of standardized semantic resources and their effective use by health applications.
Our added value
The standardization of health data
With the early adoption of the SNOMED CT terminology in France, actors in the care chain now have the ability to describe their observations, actions and outcomes in detail, in a structured and standardised form.
An expert and experienced team
Expertise on this complex terminology in particular, and on semantic standards in general, is scarce and is gathered by Use&Share.
