Assessing the Use of German Claims Data Vocabularies for Research in the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership Common Data Model: Development and Evaluation Study.

"furthermore making the vocabularies available via github enables distribution and direct use of the newly created vocabularies for german data and thus ensures semantic interoperability across institutions in germany."

"the completeness evaluation showed that the prepared vocabularies cover 44 3% (3288/7417) of the source codes contained in german claims data.; the aim of the completeness assessment was to check if all source codes are available in the prepared vocabularies.; we have prepared almost all vocabularies entirely that is all source codes contained in the vocabularies.; the evaluation process implemented for this purpose has been released as a github repository [ ].; until the integration into athena is done the prepared vocabularies are available for other researchers via download from our github repository [ ].; furthermore making the vocabularies available via github enables distribution and direct use of the newly created vocabularies for german data and thus ensures semantic interoperability across institutions in germany."
