Purpose:
The map connects PBS data, which lists medications subsidised by the Australian government, with the Australian Medicines Terminology (AMT), a SNOMED CT-based terminology. This integration helps ensure that both pharmaceutical and clinical systems use consistent terminology.
Use Case & Benefit:
The PBS to AMT map is used to identify products which are the subject of subsidies identified by PBS item codes. Its benefits include identifying medicines based on their clinical properties, regulatory status, and therapeutic use, enhancing the ability of clinicians and planners to make informed decisions.
