ICD-9-CM to SNOMED CT ® Map

The new ICD-9-CM to SNOMED CT Map is available for download by UMLS licensees. The map will facilitate the translation of legacy ICD-9-CM data to SNOMED CT and aid the transition to use of SNOMED CT for patient problem lists. The download consists of two files (one-to-one maps and one-to-many maps), which include usage frequencies of ICD-9-CM codes based on CMS (Centers for Medicare& Medicaid Services) data, and SNOMED CT concepts from theCORE Problem List Subset.
