Question on ICD9 CM Diagnosis Codes

I am looking for an overview explaining how some ICD9 Diagnosis codes get associated with a Procedure Domain_ID. Has a OHDISI work group decided that some icd9 CM Diagnosis codes are better described as procedures? It looks like this might be ‘V’ and/or ‘E’ ICD9 codes.

Any insight is appreciated.

@yburges:

Yes, that’s esssentially the case. “Workgroup” is a strong word, but yes, a couple people looked at that.

Why? Found some issues?
