SNOMED allows creating extensions for terms not in its release, adhering to specific rules for standards. Extensions can map to pre-coordinated concepts or require post-coordination, published with a namespace for semantic interoperability.
Refsets in SNOMED CT allow subsets for specific use cases, enabling standard compliance and external sharing. They cater to language, mappings, and situational needs with a mandatory regeneration post-SNOMED release.
