ICD9 Look Up

QUESTION

Is there functionality to do a text search of the ICD-9 that would return the ICD-9 number?  Is there some sort of documentation of all the functions and sub procedures that come with the Drg dll and Icd-9 dll?
  
ANSWER

There is no text search support in our ICD9 handling; it is tool for labeling a given ICD9, not for choosing an ICD9.

There is scads of documentation on the procedures and how to call them. I have attached our manual here, though you should have received a copy with your order.
