Abstract

Standardized terminology and classification systems play a crucial role in ensuring interoperability and data exchange in health informatics. This review article explores the significance of implementing standardized terminology and classification systems in laboratory data to enhance interoperability within healthcare systems. The adoption of standardized terminology facilitates seamless communication between different healthcare entities, leading to improved data quality, accuracy, and efficiency in healthcare delivery. By examining the benefits and challenges associated with the implementation of standardized terminology and classification systems in laboratory data, this review sheds light on the importance of harmonizing data structures and vocabularies to enable effective data sharing and integration. Furthermore, the review discusses the impact of standardized terminologies on decision-making processes, clinical outcomes, and patient care, emphasizing the need for consistent data representation across healthcare settings. Overall, this article underscores the critical role of standardized terminology and classification systems in promoting data interoperability and advancing health informatics practices.
