How does SNOMED CT relate to ICD-10?

SNOMED CT describes clinical meaning. ICD-10 (and ICD-10-CM) describes billing categories. The SNOMED to ICD-10-CM map (maintained by NLM) gives one or more ICD codes per SNOMED concept. We expose those mappings on each concept page and through the cross_references field on the API.

Do I need a SNOMED license?

Yes for any production use. SNOMED International controls licensing through national affiliates (NLM in the US). The free tier here is for evaluation. Paid plans assume the customer holds a valid affiliate license or is using an exempted use case.
