ICD9-CM data unfortunately has no comma separation, so have to
 pre-process. Note that this canonical data doesn't specify non-diagnostic
 higher-level codes, just the specific diagnostic 'child' codes.
The file can be pulled from the zip files on the CMS web site or from
 within the package. Pulled data can be saved to the package development
 tree.

Calculate comorbidities, Charlson scores, perform fast and accurate
validation, conversion, manipulation, filtering and comparison of ICD-9-CM
(clinical modification) codes. ICD-9 codes appear numeric but leading and
trailing zeroes, and both decimal and non-decimal "short" format codes
exist. The package enables a work flow from raw lists of ICD-9 codes from
hospital billing databases to comorbidities. ICD-9 to comorbidity mappings
from Quan (Deyo and Elixhauser versions), Elixhauser and AHRQ included. Any
other mapping of codes, such as ICD-10, to comorbidities can be used.
