Introduction
The Ministry of Health works with health and disability agencies and their industry partners to develop SNOMED CT® reference sets, maps, language reference sets and other content for digital health solutions in New Zealand.
The SNOMED CT New Zealand Extension - SNOMED NZ Extension, for short - packages these components for release every April and October, to be used with the latest SNOMED CT International Edition release.
The same content can be viewed online using the SNOMED CT browser and it can be easily deployed via the free, open source SNOMED CT terminology server Snowstorm from SNOMED International.
We welcome your feedback and participation. For more information about SNOMED CT implementation in New Zealand, see our website or join our SNOMED NZ Open Forum Hui Tuwhera on Yammer.
Background
This document provides a summarized description of the content changes included in the October 2020 production release of the SNOMED NZ Extension package.
It will also include technical notes detailing any known issues which have been identified. These are content or technical issues where the root cause is understood, and the fix has been discussed and agreed, but has yet to be implemented.
This SNOMED NZ Extension package is dependent upon, and should therefore be consumed in conjunction with the SNOMED CT July 2020 International Edition release.

Technical notes
Known Issues
Known Issues are content or technical issues where the root cause is understood, and the resolution has been discussed and agreed but has yet to be implemented. This can be due to a number of reasons, from lack of capacity within the current editing cycle, to the risk of impact to the stability of SNOMED CT if the fix were to be deployed at that stage in the Product lifecycle.
The following known issues were identified, and agreed to be resolved in the next editing cycle:
