Multi-Terminology Server (MTS)
A server to provide an official and central place for all stakeholders involved in eHealth to get most up-to-date information regarding terminologies

The Agence du Numérique en Santé (ANS) is rolling out a Multi-Terminology Server (MTS) for posting terminology (nomenclature, dictionaries, classifications, ontologies, alignments, codings, translations, etc.) for the purposes of health sector interoperability.
The MTS is aimed at public and private organisations that use specialised terminology in the health and social care sectors. It makes available to them: a catalogue of health terminology, a collection of terminology in a standardised format, training spaces, and news on the latest health terminology.
The terminology is accessible via standardised formats (RDF/OWL), APIs and an HCI, allowing for the extraction and downloading of various elements of the terminology: concept, code, descriptions, synonyms, semantic relations, etc.
New terminology will be published on an ongoing basis on this MTS in line with interoperability priorities. The MTS will also acquire new functions suggested by users of the service.
With the interoperability test platform going online and the MTS, France has made available two essential tools for rolling out interoperability.
