Abstract: BACKGROUND: Adherence to clinical guidelines supports high quality patient care. Conformance checking, a feature of process mining, can potentially automate the assessment of adherence to clinical guidelines in practice. OBJECTIVES: This paper investigates appropriate conformance checking in practice. METHODS: Conformance checking in practice was simulated with generated test data, a FHIR server and process mining tools. A corresponding literature review was conducted in parallel. RESULTS: Activities of clinical guidelines or in healthcare processes should be coded using clinical nomenclature to support conformance checking. CONCLUSION: SNOMED CT should be used as a nomenclature and activities should be coded with SNOMED concepts of the type "procedure".
