MedlinePlus Connect (Miller)
MedlinePlus Connect is a service that links diagnoses in an electronic health record to information from MedlinePlus, the National Library of Medicine’s (NLM) consumer health Web site. MedlinePlus Connect allows health information systems to use ICD-9-CM or SNOMED CT codes to easily link to the corresponding MedlinePlus health topic page. Large mapping files enable this process. This briefing will describe the infrastructure of the service, the process of creating the mappings, vocabulary issues, and research questions for the future.

It will also include information regarding NLM’s work with the National Information Standards Organization (NISO) to submit version 3.1 of the DTDs as a NISO Standard.
