6Addition of "X disorder at Y level"JCA

ICD-11 beta includes a large number of mostly injury concepts that specify the particular "level" or "segment" that an anatomical structure is affected. There is historical precedence for adding this type of content as some was orginally derived from ICD-9 and has been in SNOMED since before 2002.

 Extension of range of "Specimen substance"JCA

Followup: Upon the review of the use cases for the need for "Physical objects" to be values for "Specimen substance". The existence of "Device specimen" implies that physical objects in almost all cases provide the source for specimens that are actually analyzed. These would be specimens such as "swabs", "washings", "wipes". The physical objects themselves are usually not regarded as the matrix for analysis.

It is recommended that this proposal (Extend "Specimen substance" range) be modified to request the extension of "SPECIMEN SOURCE IDENTITY" up one level from "Device" to "Physical object".

 
 Proposed policy on acceptance of "Patient-friendly terms" into the International releaseJCA

There have been multiple requests from members to consider the addition of "Patient-friendly vocabulary". A draft position document discussing the pros and cons and a proposed policy for inclusion of such terms in the International release is provided for discussion and input.

 Proposed policy: Allowance of Extensions to Modify Core ContentJCA

A discussion document submitted to the Content Managers Advisory Group requested clarification on what national extensions were allowed to do re: modification of core content. The following draft document addresses the primary issues and proposes a more set of policy statements related to what is allowable and not allowable by extensions, which affect core content.
