IT Background
For electronic data exchange we use standards:• Information exchange standards like Health
Level 7 (HL7) – helps define where to find information
• Data standards like Logical Identifiers Names and Codes (LOINC) and Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine Clinical Terms (SNOMED CT) for the concepts we need to share

The Specimen Cross-Mapping Table (Specimen CMT)
Background:In 2009 state and CDC PHLs collected specimen terms in use and attempted to harmonize usage and map to HL7 terms (Table 70 or 487)Mapping process revealed gaps:• Missing common terms• Ambiguous termsDecision to move to use of SNOMED CTApplied National Animal Health Lab Network (NAHLN) principle in mapping to Specimen (SPM) segment fields

Interoperability Problems
Background (cont):Most labs have 1 field, possibly 2 for specimen source – some labs support all SPM fieldsIdea of Specimen CMT was born to allow use of single term to map across multiple fields
![Page 7: Lab and Messaging CoP 11/29/2012. Agenda Agenda review Introduction to the Specimen Cross-Mapping Table (Specimen CMT) – Background – Expected uses –](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfc71a28abf838ca7923/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The Specimen CMT
Expected uses:• Provide mapping from single term to ALL specimen source
term fields in the SPM segment• Provide education (link to collection instructions, use etc.
along with definition for each term)• Provide guidance on what specimen term to use based on
type of lab test ordered (by lab specialty; for micro test urine need to know collection method was sterile – not so important for chemistry test)
• Harmonize/standardize use of terms• Become national resource of curated vocabulary

Map local terms to PHLIP preferred term

Map single term to ALL SPM segment fields

Provide education – definition/ links to collection manual
![Page 11: Lab and Messaging CoP 11/29/2012. Agenda Agenda review Introduction to the Specimen Cross-Mapping Table (Specimen CMT) – Background – Expected uses –](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfc71a28abf838ca7923/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Provide education - preference by lab domain
![Page 12: Lab and Messaging CoP 11/29/2012. Agenda Agenda review Introduction to the Specimen Cross-Mapping Table (Specimen CMT) – Background – Expected uses –](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfc71a28abf838ca7923/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Harmonize/standardize use of terms
![Page 13: Lab and Messaging CoP 11/29/2012. Agenda Agenda review Introduction to the Specimen Cross-Mapping Table (Specimen CMT) – Background – Expected uses –](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfc71a28abf838ca7923/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Specimen CMT - Discussion
• Balance between data entry / data analysis utility– Need few clicks on data entry side – ideal a single
term to choose from– Need to search on type / source site / collection
method separately– Balance between consistent term application and
traditional use
![Page 14: Lab and Messaging CoP 11/29/2012. Agenda Agenda review Introduction to the Specimen Cross-Mapping Table (Specimen CMT) – Background – Expected uses –](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfc71a28abf838ca7923/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Specimen CMT - few clicks on data entry side
• Use pre-coordinated term in specimen type
![Page 15: Lab and Messaging CoP 11/29/2012. Agenda Agenda review Introduction to the Specimen Cross-Mapping Table (Specimen CMT) – Background – Expected uses –](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfc71a28abf838ca7923/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Search Examples
• Find all submitted tissues – then find all collection method = SWAB – this would be a search to help identify incorrectly submitted specimen in micro domain
• Find all stool samples, then of those all that were bloody and liquid
• Find all urine specimen submitted• Find all specimen from the Cervix
![Page 16: Lab and Messaging CoP 11/29/2012. Agenda Agenda review Introduction to the Specimen Cross-Mapping Table (Specimen CMT) – Background – Expected uses –](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfc71a28abf838ca7923/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Specimen CMT – same term on data analysis side
• Use simple term in specimen type vs. pre-coordinated
![Page 17: Lab and Messaging CoP 11/29/2012. Agenda Agenda review Introduction to the Specimen Cross-Mapping Table (Specimen CMT) – Background – Expected uses –](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfc71a28abf838ca7923/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Specimen CMT – same term on data analysis side
• Use Prototype term in specimen type
![Page 18: Lab and Messaging CoP 11/29/2012. Agenda Agenda review Introduction to the Specimen Cross-Mapping Table (Specimen CMT) – Background – Expected uses –](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfc71a28abf838ca7923/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Nationally curated vocabulary
• Create Governance• Engage all stakeholders• Engage the Subject Matter Expert (SME)
community• Define change control and review
processes• Define distribution

Improve SNOMED
• Specimen CMT identified:– Many new terms (all SNOMED hierarchies:
specimen, procedure, substance, morphologic abnormality)
– Issues with existing terms (better names, missing synonyms, updating relationships, modeling)

Questions?
• Can ASM provide a SME or more for this project?
• Have asked API for help on committees to help designing good EHRsystems properly represent laboratory content
