Diagnostic Codes Development
From OpenEMR Project Wiki
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.
ICD9
- Already well 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.
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
