Coronavirus Clinical Term Update - March 2020
Introduction
We are now in the process of releasing new clinical terms to support the recording of Coronavirus across the Vision product suite.
For full details of the latest SNOMED CT code release, please refer to https://digital.nhs.uk/services/terminology-and-classifications/snomed-ct and select NHS Digital SNOMED CT Browser.

Vision 3
This update is being released on top of the following versions of Vision 3:
-
England – Vison release DLM 700 - Complete as of 5th March 2020
-
Scotland – Vision release DLM 650 - Almost complete as of 5th March 2020
-
Wales – Vision release DLM 660 - Complete as of 5th March 2020
-
Northern Ireland – Vision release 670 - In Progress as of 5th March 2020
As you may be aware, Vision 3 dual codes all data, data is entered using Read codes and mapped to SNOMED CT behind the scenes. From April 2018 there are additions to SNOMED CT that cannot not be directly mapped to existing Read codes. These can be recorded in Vision Anywhere, which is fully SNOMED CT compliant.
See SNOMED CT In Vision FAQs for further information.
This change report lists the Vision local codes we are introducing to ensure you can utilise the new SNOMED CT codes that cannot be directly mapped to Read codes within Vision 3.
Note – We have used this opportunity to add other Vision local codes, not just Coronavirus. |

Clinical Audit Support
To support you in your management of Coronavirus (COVID-19) we have produced a suite of audits for you to download and use:
This audit can be downloaded from http://help.visionhealth.co.uk/clinical%20audit/Content/Downloads/INPS%20Daily.htm
For instructions on downloading and importing audits see Downloading and Importing Clinical Audits
Vision +
Please be aware, the new Coronavirus clinical terms are not available in Vision + until you receive SIS10500, due for release in the near future.
Vision Anywhere
The new clinical terms to support the recording of Coronavirus are due to be released as soon as Vision 3 has been updated to receive and map the SNOMED CT terms.
Important – In order that the following clinical terms are available for you to use as quickly as possible, they all write back to Vision 3 as general history entries. We will be issuing a further update to move these terms into the most appropriate Structure Data Entity (SDA) shortly. In the meantime, the Clinical Audit issued (see above) is designed to search across Vision 3 for any and all entries using these terms. |
The release includes the following terms:
