Healthcare Terminology API – SNOMED CT, ICD-10 & Drug Database Services
Healthcare applications rely on standardized clinical terminology to achieve interoperability, regulatory compliance and accurate clinical documentation. However, deploying and maintaining terminology servers, managing large clinical vocabularies and designing efficient search APIs can significantly increase development complexity.
The EHR.Network Healthcare Terminology API removes this complexity by providing a fully managed terminology service that allows developers to integrate SNOMED CT, ICD-10 mappings and drug database lookup APIs into their applications through simple REST APIs.
There are no terminology servers to install, no SNOMED CT database to manage and no complex terminology queries to design. Simply integrate our APIs and start building standards-compliant healthcare applications.
A Fully Managed Healthcare Terminology Service
EHR.Network provides everything required to add clinical terminology services to your application:
- Managed SNOMED CT terminology server
- SNOMED CT search APIs
- ICD-10 mapping APIs
- Drug database lookup APIs
- REST-based developer APIs
- Comprehensive documentation
- Implementation support and consultancy
Our goal is simple—to enable healthcare developers to integrate clinical coding capabilities within minutes instead of spending weeks deploying and maintaining terminology infrastructure.
Built for Modern Healthcare Applications
The EHR.Network Terminology API helps you standardize clinical information across your application.
Common use cases include coding:
- Chief complaints
- Diagnoses
- Allergies
- Medications
- Procedures
- Laboratory investigations
- Imaging examinations
- Family relationships
- Body systems
- Anatomical structures
- Clinical observations
By storing coded clinical data instead of free text, your application becomes more interoperable, searchable and analytics-ready.
Powerful Healthcare Terminology APIs
Our REST APIs support a wide range of terminology operations, including:
SNOMED CT Search
Search SNOMED CT concepts using keywords to provide fast clinical lookups within your application.
Concept Details
Retrieve complete concept information including:
- Preferred terms
- Synonyms
- Definitions
- Relationships
- Metadata
Terminology Navigation
Explore the clinical hierarchy by retrieving:
- Parent concepts
- Child concepts
- Descendant concepts
- Related concepts
Drug Lookup APIs
Search for:
- Generic medicines
- Brand and package medications
You can also identify the generic medicine associated with a branded or packaged medication.
ICD-10 Mapping
Retrieve ICD-10 mappings for SNOMED CT concepts wherever an official mapping exists, simplifying coding, reporting and regulatory workflows.
Always Up to Date
Clinical terminologies continue to evolve.
EHR.Network periodically updates the terminology service with the latest releases published by SNOMED International and NRCeS, allowing your applications to benefit from current terminology content without requiring any operational effort from your development team.
Designed for HealthTech Developers
The Terminology API is part of the growing EHR.Network developer ecosystem, providing reusable healthcare infrastructure that accelerates HealthTech application development.
Our ecosystem is designed to eliminate the operational burden of healthcare infrastructure so developers can focus on building innovative clinical workflows and user experiences rather than managing backend healthcare services.
Start Building Standards-Compliant Healthcare Applications
Whether you are building an EMR, EHR, hospital information system, diagnostic platform, telemedicine solution, patient application or AI-powered clinical product, the EHR.Network Terminology API provides the clinical coding services needed to support interoperable healthcare applications.
If your application can consume REST APIs, you can integrate SNOMED CT search, ICD-10 lookup and drug database services within hours—not weeks.
Build standards-compliant healthcare software while EHR.Network manages the terminology infrastructure for you.
