Abstract
Nursing's vocabularies complement other healthcare vocabularies and provide more complete details of the patient care experience and context that can be used to better describe patient safety, quality metrics, and outcomes linked with diagnoses and interventions. Nursing has a long history of vocabulary development and experience in semantic and process interoperability that can be useful for the ONC Vocabulary Task Force to rapidly implement methods for meaningful use of EHRs.
