SNOMED CT has an enormous number of clinical concepts and mapping to SNOMED CT is considered as the foundation to achieve semantic interoperability in healthcare. Manual mapping is time-consuming and error-prone thus making this crucial step challenging. In addition, hierarchy retrieval of clinical concepts increases the challenges for the user. Terminology Servers provide an interface, which can be used to automate the process of retrieving data. In this work, it is shown that Snowstorm can significantly improve the efficiency of retrieval process if used with semi-automated workflows.
