OpenEMR currently supports ICD9 diagnostic codes by default (although the codes need to be imported via phpmyadmin). It is also important to support ICD10 and SNOMED as an option; this wiki page will track the development of this. This was started after active discussion in the icd10 sourceforge forum thread.

ICD9

Already integrated and working on a default OpenEMR installation(although the codes need to be imported via phpmyadmin).
  • For ease of use, could consider mechanism that has these codes installed by default, but that needs to be turned "on" to use.
  • Create a mechanism to search for ICD9 codes by category.

ICD10

Appears that some users have got this working.
  • For standardization, propose following:
  • Create an entry in code_types table(with id of 100+). See Code Types wiki page for details.
  • Support this in the codebase

SNOMED

Can currently import the SNOMED datasets into the OpenEMR databasae, however it is currently not integrated with the OpenEMR codebase.
  • For standardization, propose following:
  • Create an entry in code_types table(with id of 100+). See Code Types wiki page for details.
  • Support this in the codebase
