MEDCIN, a system of standardized medical terminology, is a proprietary medical vocabulary and was developed by [http://www.medicomp.com Medicomp Systems, Inc.] MEDCIN is a point-of-care terminology, intended for use in Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems.

Developed by Medicomp, it includes over 250,000 clinical data elements encompassing symptoms, history, physical examination, tests, diagnoses and therapy. This clinical vocabulary contains over 26 years of research and development as well as the capability to cross map to leading codification systems such as SNOMED, CPT, ICD, GSM and LOINC. The MEDCIN coding system is the ideal coding system for point-of-care documentation and architecture. Several Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems are embedded with MEDCIN, which produces fully structured and numerically codified patient charts that enable the aggregation, analysis, and extensive mining of all clinical and practice management data related to a disease, a patient or a population.
