Open Concept Lab

"Open Concept Lab (OCL) is an open source, FHIR-enabled health terminology management system. OCL facilitates the collaborative management, publication and use of custom medical terminology resources such as diagnoses, observations, lab measurements, reporting indicators, and more. OCL also provides access to standardized reference terminologies like the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) and is a primary distributor of the Columbia International eHealth Laboratory (CIEL) interface terminology. Organizations use OCL to serve as a central source of truth for data standards and definitions, supporting the normalization of clinical data to achieve semantic interoperability. Common use cases include using OCL as a foundation for a national health data dictionary, building FHIR value sets and concept maps, or managing a concept dictionary for an electronic medical record like OpenMRS. OCL is designed to be used in a shared, cloud-based environment alongside the global community or as a self-hosted architectural component within an organization’s data exchange architecture."
