Recently, some PHDL program members commented, both in conversation and evaluations, that they regularly need to convert ICD-9 to ICD-10 procedure code sets and vice versa.  Already included in your subscription, via the homepage of the STAT!Ref platform is access to the conversion tool for diagnosis codes.  The mappings are based on the General Equivalence Mappings (GEM) files provided by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).

Thanks to a trial from STAT!Ref, you can now also convert your respective procedure codes:  ICD-10 Procedure Coding System corresponds to Volume 3 of ICD-9 (Index to Procedures).  Your subscription already includes the ICD-10 diagnosis code set (Clinical Modification).  Those of you using these codes sets should have a look at ICD-10 PCS and the Conversation Tool available for use with ICD-9.

As the trial progresses, please feel free to share with us your feedback, comments, and suggestions by emailing us at phdl@umassmed.edu or contacting us at our office.
