2  Notes for the July 2021 Member Release

2.1  Summary

The feedback about the SNOMED CT International Beta Release that was received during the Beta period, was used to update the International edition release package ready for the Member release.

There was some feedback provided that, for a variety of reasons, didn’t result in changes to this Release version, but instead will be resolved as part of the next editing cycle, ready for publication in future releases.  Details of these “Known Issues” can be found in section 3.1 of the Release Notes that are published alongside the July 2021 International edition Member release package.

The feedback that resulted in changes being made to the Member Release package for the July 2021 International edition are detailed below in section 2.2.

SNOMED International thanks Members who contributed feedback.

NOTICE of changes to Member release

In order to include important COVID-19 Vaccines content in the July 2021 International Edition, that was not available until later in the Release cycle, SNOMED International introduced planned changes to the original content of the Beta Release.

This means that the Member Release (published on 30th Jun 2021) contains planned differences to the original Beta Release content - the current scope is circa. 40 vaccine-related component changes.  Anyone interested in these changes should therefore ensure that they download the Member release even if they've already validated the BETA release.



2.2  Items Reported in the Beta feedback stage, that were resolved for the Member Release

The following items were resolved in the July 2021 International Member Release package, between the publication of the Beta Release and Member Release(s):
