title: A conversion code from ICHPPC-1 to ICHPPC-2.
abstract: Faculty members from four departments of family medicine participated in the production of a definitive conversion from the first to the second versions of the International Classification of Health Problems in Primary Care (ICHPPC). A detailed conversion code with the appropriate ICHPPC-2 equivalent for each ICHPPC-1 diagnostic title is provided. Differences between the two classifications are discussed and suggestions are made for the use of the conversion code.
