. SNOMED is one of the most widely adopted Clinical Terminology systems. However, incomplete representations and modelling inconsistencies in SNOMED are preventing healthcare applications from exploiting its full potential. This paper presents a novel stop-word based contextual auditing method to identify potential inconsistencies in the modelling of SNOMED concepts. The results of a pilot study method show promising potential with this method. The percentage of identified missing attribute relationships using this method is as high as 69.56% and for identified missing hierarchical relationships it is 28.26%. The auditing method proposed in this paper can act as a supplementary Quality Assurance check in the International Health Terminology Standards Development Organization’s effort to improve the quality of SNOMED.
