Clinical decision support (CDS) developer

A clinical decision support (CDS) developer is a person or organization that translates clinical knowledge into structured or executable tools that support evidence‑informed care decisions. CDS developers may not be the original authors of the knowledge or the final implementers. 

CDS developers ensure that the tools accurately reflect the source knowledge and use appropriate standards and coding systems, such as Clinical Quality Language, Current Procedural Terminology, and SNOMED CT. They also address intellectual property and licensing requirements.
