Id like to see more widespread use of SNOMED CT in my country. How do we become a Member?
Membership is open to all countries who are interested in using SNOMED CT and working towards the goals and purpose of the Association. Nations themselves are not members. Members are an organization which is endorsed by the Government to represent that nation. All prospective Members of the IHTSDO must meet certain criteria (refer Clause 4.3.2 of the Articles) in order to join the Association. The IHTSDO is very keen to encourage new Members, so please contact us to discuss this further. The process for joining as an Ordinary Member is set out in the IHTSDO Articles of Association. Getting started is as simple as sending a letter from your Ministry of Health indicating your intent to join IHTSDO and the people and the agency/organization/Ministerial Department that would be responsible for SNOMED CT in your jurisdiction.
