snomed ct annotation

SNOMED CT annotation

Is additional information that can be associated to SNOMED CT components and reference set members.

Notes

• This extra information may be of value when evaluating a particular change to a SNOMED component or aid in implementation of SNOMED CT.

• Annotations are non-defining, so they do not have any impact on the classification of SNOMED CT concepts.

• Annotations are not mandatory for all components; they can be used as needed for a particular use case.
