As we here at Clinical Architecture have been developing our Symedical product, I have had the pleasure of spending some quality time with UMLS Metathesaurus and RxNorm. As I was going through this journey of discovery, I thought to myself that it might be a good idea to share my findings and experiences with others who might also be looking into using RxNorm and UMLS to enhance or improve their clinical interoperability.

So, to that end, I have created the first of, in what I hope will be, a series of Screen Casts that provide some insight into UMLS and RxNorm.

Special thanks Jan Willis and the other folks at NLM for their feedback.
