-Currently, ​61 vocabularies are part of the Standardized Vocabularies. Many of them are adopted from 3rd party sources, which develop and maintain them for specific purposes, such as ICD-9-CMICD-10 ​or SNOMED-CT. Consolidation of the vocabularies into a standardized form requires a number of decisions and conventions. This document discusses both the organization of vocabularies within the clinical domains, the specific implementation of each vocabulary into the Standardized Vocabularies,​ and the mapping of Concepts within and between vocabularies. It also provides guidance of how to apply them for transformation of source data into the CDM and about the querying of data once they are established in CDM format. ​+Currently, ​81 vocabularies are part of the Standardized Vocabularies.

In particular, all concepts in previous versions are still available and identified using the same Concept IDs.
