I have worked in healthcare informatics for over 20 years, and with Symedical for almost 10 years. Those of us in the healthcare industry understand that patient care is both science and art, as is the management of the data that supports that care. If healthcare data management and application (informatics) is the completed canvas, then terminology offers individual brush strokes, both broad and precise, to create that masterpiece.

Symedical is a unique tool that offers those that curate healthcare terminology a reliable touchpoint to perform this significant work. One fascinating aspect of Symedical is that it is useful for all terminology skill levels, from novice to very advanced. The beauty is it is the user who determines the parameters and precision needed, based on use case and skill levels.

Effective curation of healthcare terminology requires both technical tools and human support. Symedical is a very effective tool and Clinical Architecture associates offer some of the most knowledgeable guidance and support available to its clients. I have found this team to be available, insightful, and pleasant. Trifecta.

The Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) is the research wing of NMDP (in collaboration with the Medical College of Wisconsin). CIBMTR has a 50 year history of intaking high-quality data related to Clinical Outcomes of stem cell therapy recipients. We are using Symedical to manage our move to Fast Healthcare Interoperable Resources (FHIR). Symedical has proven itself to be a product that has managed all of our use-cases, from its Relationship Synchronization Manager to complex interactions of old and new data using its Element Set Manager tool suite. However, the tool isn’t the real power. Leveraging Symedical to its fullest value is due to the engagement with the staff at Clinical Architecture. They have proven themselves to be highly responsive to our odd questions and requests, and together we’ve managed to come up with the solutions we need. They have been nothing but patient with our learning curves with external vocabularies that are new to the CIBMTR (LOINC, SNOMED, RxNorm), and very open to intaking and publishing external vocabularies such as the NCI Cancer Data Standards Repository (caDSR) that has been the backbone of how CIBMTR has been able to manage our thousands of datapoints for Stem Cell Therapies that we feel will be valuable to the healthcare community at large. We look forward to our continuing work with Clinical Architecture and using (and improving) Symedical for maintaining our commitment to delivering high-quality clinical outcomes data for research in improving outcomes of Stem Cell Therapies.

I wish all of our systems would use Symedical across the board. Not only does Symedical improve my day-to-day job functions, but it is a single source of truth for data quality. The Customer Support, Training, and Professional Services teams are excellent.

The NACHC Informatics team was able to revamp and streamline our clinical content authoring and distribution process on multiple big health data projects involving multiple external partners and organizations. We’ve been able to use Clinical Architecture’s clinically-curated value sets, localized and expanded to fit NACHC’s various use cases, and ensured that clinical concepts are properly modeled and represented, with the content being updated in real-time as standards organizations release new terms, versions and expansions.

Without Symedical, I had to manually create and update value sets on VSAC through multiple spreadsheets. Symedical has saved me a lot of time building and updating sets, mapping unstructured data to standards, categorizing data to value sets (harmonization), and more! The content development and client success teams have all been amazing from the very beginning! They have both clinical and software expertise, and are very friendly, professional and quick to respond to requests and questions!

I am hoping to continue using Symedical to support public and population health by using the content and the tools for community health centers and networks who may not have the terminology/informatics staff and resources to manage and extract medical data for research and implementation projects.”
