Aim of this work is to provide member input on which areas of content should be the focus for the quality work.
Content not in the Clinical Core is not going away.
Content in core may change over time (dynamic).
How this segmentation would be undertaken has not been determined and is out of scope for this discussion.

Which hierarchies/ sub-hierarchies should be part of the clinical core?
- Findings, Disorders, Procedures
- Foundational hierarchies e.g. Body structure, Observables
- Qualifier values e.g. Action values, Colours etc...
- Events, Record artifact, Staging and scales?
What types of content should be part of the clinical core?
- Atomic components
  - Examples: Myocardial infarction, Internal fixation of femur
- Compound content e.g. X with Y, X without Y, X due to Y etc.
  - Examples: Anemia caused by heat, Stroke co-occurrent with migraine, Cholecystectomy and operative cholangiogram
- Content with context
  - Examples: Nausea present, No pain, History of burn, Colonoscopy planned
  - Relates to someone other than the subject of the record e.g. Mother smokes, Family history of neoplasm
- Concepts used to define other concepts - Target values for concepts
  - Is this just within the clinical core and/or other editions
- Lateralised content
- - If femoral hernia is actively maintained, is there a need to actively maintain left/right femoral hernia?
- Severity
  - Examples: Severe pain, Severe depression
Content with intellectual property considerations
Administrative content
- Statuses, Procedures
Content to support alignment with other Terminologies, Classifications and Standards
- What if the meaning doesn't align with SNOMED Editorial Guidelines?
Grouping concepts e.g. Procedure by body site, Disorder of lung

Brainstorm what aspects (such as above) need to be considered? (May)
Identify which hierarchies should be included (even if not all the content should be included in the clinical core) (May)
Look at hierarchies identified for inclusion using the aspects to be considered (still at a high level) (June - August)
Develop response and provide to SNOMED International (September)
