What I further notice is the lack of provision, within the file, to distinguish
codes which may in fact be
ICD10
from the country-speific additions which in combination create (e.g.)
ICD10-CM
and within which at least the internationally-consistent ICD-10 portion could
have been identifiable and usable.
I expect that could be a strategy, if not a requirement, of release.
