Thanks all
I think that we need free license, what is license for?, software? Do you have 
any training materials or doc? We here will focus on diagnosis and report
Thanks

Hi Mean,

We plan to use MVP's concept dictionary which already maps to ICD-10 and 
SNOMED. So you get three for the price of one (free).

If you want the ontology behind SNOMED, that is when you will need to get a 
license. But until then, MVP may be the most economical approach.

I can show you how we plan to deploy OpenMRS in the Philippines when we meet in 
Bangkok...

Mean,

We are using ICD-10-WHO as maps to our diagnostic concepts. They are used 
primarily for coding of reports, unlike ICD-9-CM which is used primarily for 
financial reimbursement in the USA. We haven't written any specific reports to 
take advantage of the mappings as yet, although I think that building this into 
the data warehousing project for automated aggregation is a natural way to go.

Intelligent Medical Objects (IMO) is a private company in the US that I work 
with which provides terminologies to US-based EMR companies and they also have 
cross-maps from the OpenMRS concept dictionary to ICD-9-CM. However, this is a 
very important crossmap and it costs money to license. Let me know if you have 
any intention to use it and I can help.

I believe that ICD-10-WHO will be used in Rwanda (although they may go with the 
Australian modification). Perhaps others can chime in about that.

These administrative codesets are not very clinically useful. We also map to 
SNOMED CT as this is a more robust ontology which provides parent-child 
relationships to concepts among other relationships.

Best,
Andy

Dear All,
Any body experience of using ICD (9 or 10) in OpenMRS? What are benefit of ICD 
in the system and health care?

Thanks
