      Comment:

      LOINC is not used over the whole world, e.g. in Sweden. We need therefore a possibility to use Snomed CT codes as an alternative. Make a similar statment that CIMI has made:

      1. Snomed CT is the primary reference terminology

      2.Loinc is approved as reference terminology

      IF overlap - Snomed CT first.
