[Histonet] SNO-Med and ICD-9 Codes

Thu Oct 9 10:03:02 CDT 2003

I was just wondering if there were any reason why SNO-Med terminology should
be updated in our computer data base? Now that we have ICD-9 codes, is the
SNO-Med terminology necessary? for example, for any regulatory agency
requirement? Just wanted some input on this, 
Thanks,
