Nightmare here in Louisiana and states for some reason the government agencies are still using the IDC-9 codes, what are the chances these could be incorporated into care2x.

Some of the members might have experiences to share by now. Personally, I would suggest that you setup an evaluation installation and run it in parallel with your current HIS program. Just to introduce the concept of Care2x to the personnel. Then later on, if they see the advantages of care2x, you might carefully migrate the database data to care2x. In the evaluation process you will certainly discover things that must be adapted to your local needs. And please keep us informed on this list.
