OpenMed AI: Mapping a Medication Catalog to SNOMED CT

Healthcare organizations are preparing for a new era of medical data portability. The requirement to transfer medical information between systems, organizations, and service providers demands not only technical data availability, but also standardization, uniformity, and the use of a shared clinical language.

In practice, this is a significant challenge. Beyond making data accessible in a new structure like FHIR, healthcare organizations must invest considerable time in mapping medical terminologies: diagnoses, lab tests, allergies, procedures, medications, and more.

For many organizations, this means lengthy projects, manual work, dedicated team recruitment, involvement of both clinical and technical professionals, and complex quality-control processes.

But when it comes to medications, there's a smarter way.

OpenMed AI by Formidable

OpenMed AI was built to help healthcare organizations map their organizational medication catalog to SNOMED CT in an automated, fast, and controlled manner.

Instead of a lengthy manual process of mapping thousands of medication records, OpenMed AI performs the initial mapping layer automatically, allowing professional teams to focus solely on validating the results.

The outcome is a far more efficient workflow: less manual work, less burden on professional staff, and a significant reduction in preparation time.

Up to 90% Time Savings Compared to Manual Mapping

Mapping a medication catalog to SNOMED CT requires understanding drug names, active substances, strengths, dosage forms, units of measurement, release characteristics, and various clinical representations. When done manually, this process can take weeks or even months.

OpenMed AI enables automated mapping of a medication catalog within hours, saving up to 90% of the time compared to manual mapping.

Professional Teams Stay in Control

OpenMed AI does not replace professional judgment. It shortens the technical and manual workload, leaving the approval stage in the hands of the organization's clinical and professional staff. The system includes a clear, user-friendly interface for validating mappings, allowing teams to review, approve, update, or correct the matches the system proposes.

This gives organizations the right combination of advanced automation and professional oversight.

Full Documentation, Logs, and Audit Trail

In medical data portability projects, performing the mapping isn't enough. You also need to be able to explain, document, and track changes over time.

OpenMed AI includes full logging of actions, changes, and updates, with audit trails for monitoring and control. This allows the mapping process to be managed in an organized, transparent, and controlled manner from the initial mapping through ongoing catalog maintenance.
