ICD9 Code Assistant: A prototype.
At The Ohio State University Medical Center (OSUMC) patient reports are available in real time along with other clinical and financial data in the OSUMC Information Warehouse (IW). Using the UMLS Meta Thesaurus we have leveraged the IW to develop a tool that can assist the medical record coders as well as administrators, physicians and researchers to quickly identify clinical concepts and their associated ICD-9 codes.
