Exploratory Reverse Mapping of ICD-10-CA to SNOMED CT

چکیده
This paper describes the findings of an exploratory study on reverse mapping of ICD-10-CA, the Canadian Adaptation, to SNOMED CT. For this study a set of 5,000 most frequent ICD-10-CA codes from the health ministry of a Canadian province was used. The methods included applying six mapping algorithms to each ICD-10-CA description to find the matching SNOMED CT concepts, and comparing the output against the UK SCT-ICD10 cross map for accuracy. Overall, we found successful SNOMED CT matches for ~63% of the ICD-10-CA codes. Issues requiring further attention include ways to increase successful matches and independent validation of mapping output. This study provides a glimpse of the methods that could lead to a SNOMED CT to ICD10-CA cross map. It should be of interest to those responsible for secondary use of discharge abstracts in epidemiological and statistical reporting.

Leveraging Lexical Matching and Ontological Alignment to Map SNOMED CT Surgical Procedures to ICD-10-PCS
In 2015 ICD-10-PCS replaced ICD-9-CM for coding medical procedures in the U.S. We explored two methods to automatically map SNOMED CT surgical procedures to ICD-10-PCS. First, we used MetaMap to lexically map ICD-10-PCS index terms to SNOMED CT. Second, we made use of the axial structure of ICD-10-PCS and aligned them to defining attributes in SNOMED CT. Lexical mapping produced 45% of correct ...

BACKGROUND Primary care (PC) in Sweden provides ambulatory and home health care outside hospitals. Within the County Council of Stockholm, coding of diagnoses in PC is mandatory and is done by general practitioners (GPs) using a Swedish primary care version of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases, version 10 (ICD-10). ICD-10 has a mono-hierarchical structure. SNOMED CT is po...

متن کاملSynergism between the Mapping Projects from SNOMED CT to ICD-10 and ICD-10-CM
Two mapping projects are currently underway, creating maps from SNOMED CT to ICD-10 and ICD-10-CM respectively. Even though the two projects belong to different organizations, there has been a lot of synergism between them. The ICD-10-CM map project heavily re-used the mapping methodology, tools and map data developed in the ICD-10 map project. An algorithm was derived to generate candidate ICD...
