Abstract

The International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI) alpha2 2016 Section 1 Interventions on Body Systems and Functions is based on ISO 1828 international standard named categorial Structure (CAST). This is not sufficient to represent the meaning of ICD9-CM Volume 3 labels. We propose to modify it by using the SNOMED CT concept model.
