HLI’s LE solution is capable of managing all the content from the standards bodies, as well as the local content developed by an organization. Since HLI works with all the standards organizations, as soon as an update becomes available, HLI will complete the analysis, resolve any conflicts and provide a standard file with the new update on a predetermined schedule. This file is then loaded into the customer’s LE Solution where any local code conflicts are identified and resolved. Once tested, the data file is then versioned for canonical identification and systematically loaded into reference files within the processing environments.
LE supports the inclusion of content from many different sources, including crossmaps to link-related codes, concepts, business rules and ideas.
Available terminology standards in the U.S. include SNOMED CT®, CPT4®, ICD-9-CM, HCPCS, APC, MS-DRG, LOINC, ICD-10, NDC, RxNorm, Clinical Subsets, CDT and many others that are designed for healthcare provider and payer organizations and not listed here today. LE can also manage and integrate pharmacy code sets from FDB, Multum, and MediSpan.
