Future versions of icd will drop
the icd_
prefix. For example, charlson
should be used in
favor of icd_charlson
. To distinguish icd function calls,
consider using the namespace prefix icd::
instead, e.g.,
icd::charlson
. Functions which specifically operate on either ICD-9
or ICD-10 codes or their subtypes will retain the prefix. E.g.
icd9_comorbid_ahrq
. icd specific classes also retain
the prefix, e.g., icd_wide_data
.
