ICD MAPPING SYSTEM

Structured Healthcare Diagnosis Mapping Engine

A system for organizing, processing, and mapping complex healthcare diagnosis text to standardized ICD codes.

01 — The Problem

Unstructured clinical notes require intensive manual translation into standardized International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes.

02 — Core Concept

Automated parsing and concept matching pipeline to convert diagnostic text into canonical healthcare codes.

03 — Technical Approach

Utilizes structured text parsing and string matching algorithms to index diagnostic entries into hierarchical ICD code structures with optimized SQL retrieval.

04 — Architecture

05 — Implementation

Implemented database indexing schema, REST endpoints, search querying, and frontend lookup interface.

My Contribution

Built database indexing schema and algorithmic candidate matcher for rapid code lookup.

Outcome

Demonstrated efficient mapping of complex clinical terminology into canonical healthcare codes.
