**Notes on the attributes used in the tables of this page:**

\***Status:** Applications designed to address this use case must support the practical requirements marked as *Required*. Support for the practical requirements marked as ***Optional*** is recommended as these provide enhanced functionality that may be required by some users.

**\*Required Services:** In most cases, a reference to a subsection of [Terminology Service Types](/snomed-ct-practical-guides/snomed-ct-terminology-services-guide/4-terminology-service-types.md), implies a requirement for all services marked as ***Required*** in that subsection. However, where a reference is followed by a bulleted list, that list specifies the specific terminology services required. Some of the specific services listed as required for an *Optional* practical requirement may be marked as ***Recommended*** in the referenced subsection.

**\*Dependencies:** This columns contains references to services on which a *Required Terminology Service* depends. This column does not restate dependencies on services listed as required service or additional dependencies for essential requirements listed in earlier rows.

A full list of the dependencies of each terminology service is provided in the relevant subsection of [Terminology Service Types](/snomed-ct-practical-guides/snomed-ct-terminology-services-guide/4-terminology-service-types.md).
