    Related standards NHS Digital is using SNOMED CT coding where appropriate in DCB3066. Where this is not appropriate, national coding from the NHS Data Model and Dictionary has been used. The recording supplier system must be compliant with the SNOMED CT codes set out within the Maternity Record Standard Data Model Specification.
    Dependencies Providers should become compliant with the Healthy Child Record Standard when recording information which ultimately needs to be held within a baby’s record.
