icd10cm2016: ICD-10-CM

Description

The public domain modified ICD-10 classification as published in the public domain by the US CDC. Currently this has a slightly different structure to icd9cm_hierarchy because the published data helpfully has a leaf flag indicating whether a code is a billable leaf node, or a code higher in the hierarchy which nevertheless will have a description.

Arguments

Format

data frame, with columns for code, leaf status (0 or 1), short and long descriptions.

Details

There are annual revisions to this data. Currently, the 2016 edition is included.
