Requesting additions or updates to SNOMED CT through the New Zealand National Release Centre
SNOMED CT is a continuously growing and evolving product. Requests to create a new SNOMED CT concept or add a new term or relationship can be made to the New Zealand National Release Centre.
Where the request would have value to other SNOMED International member countries besides ourselves, we seek to have the new content added to the SNOMED CT International Edition. Content of local value only we add to the SNOMED CT New Zealand Extension.
To submit a content request, either use our SNOMED CT request management portal or download and complete the form below and email it to [email protected]
