Is the GPS equivalent to SNOMED CT?

Modified on Tue, 27 Aug, 2019 at 7:54 PM

No. The GPS is not a clinically curated list. Further, the GPS does not include SNOMED CT relationships, attributes, hierarchies and historical versioning that are fundamental to the nature of the ontology and its ability to enable clinical data analytics, decision support, etc.  The complete set of concept synonyms and definitions are not part of the GPS.
