Description
A codelist that helps identify patients that have had an online consultation instance, in the context of the roll-out of online consultations in primary care (SNOMED). (Not to be used in itself to tally number of online consultations as unit)
Methodology
The general approach was to:
a) browse the SNOMED CT Term Browser for relevant keywords * and children, choose relevant ones . Find its CTV3 equivalent (refset), if listed;
b) browse the "Read CTV3 to SNOMED CT Mapping Lookup (April 2020)" for relevant keywords * and children, choose relevant ones;
c) browse the literature, online resources and white publications for further code indications;
d) obtain clinical input via the Digital First Primary Care programme (DFPC) on initially found codes of interest (long list from a-c), as well as further codes, to arrive at a refined list.
e) Insert list into OS CodelistBuilder, include additional codes if deemed relevant.
Caveats: - Coding of online consultations is likely not a) widespread and exhaustive; b) standardised (incl because of different pathways and dispositions); c) defined by a standalone code (could need querying with other codes or looking at annotations) - Not all codes found in SNOMED may have a CTV3 equivalent.
- Keywords:
- consultation (procedure)
- econsultation
- indirect encounter
- online
- remote triage
- telemedicine
- telepractice

Codelists are developed by a broad community of users for individual study purposes, which may or may not meet the needs of other studies. They should not be thought of as universal definitions of a particular condition.
We don't offer any guarantees about what they do or don't identify. Users should carefully check that any codelist meets their needs, and seek clinical input where appropriate.
