Sekhar,

Note that I am not a medical coding professional (just a developer in the
healthcare field) so take my suggestion with a grain of salt. I believe you
will find ICD-10 and CPT to meet your needs. ICD has codes for diagnoses
and CPT  handles the related services.

Here is a good resource I found on the subject:
https://www.webpt.com/cpt-codes

Note that you'll have to build your own dictionary for handling these.
Before getting into that, maybe studying up the codes first is best.


Thanks,
