ICD-9-CM, just billable/leaf codes
data frames with columns code, short_desc, and
long_desc.
These are derived from the final CMS published version 32 for 2014,
which was unchanged since 2011. The short descriptions are in ASCII with no
special characters, whereas the long descriptions contain accented
characters which are stored as Unicode, latin-1 or cp1252.
This all done during package creation, but can be repeated by package
users, including pulling the data from the web pages directly. Despite my
best efforts, current locale can give different results, but this packaged
data is correct, with some UTF-8 encoded strings.
icd9cm_billable has been removed, and is replaced by now includes
only the latest version (32).
