Abstract

The Korean Medical Association and the Health Information Review Agency have decided to re-engineer the different Korean coding systems of health interventions based on a proposed ontology framework defined in 2010 for the prospective International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI). The authors present the interim report of the project focused on this model: 5,338 procedures of the Korean version of ICD9-CM 5,150 procedures covered by Korean health insurance and 6,619 uncovered procedure labels were processed with the participation of 8 coders and 310 medical doctors. As of 28th January 61.8% of data was processed. The ontology framework model itself was not enough to represent all the labels when the preliminary data from obstetrics and gynecology was explored. However, when modified with 7 notations, it was possible to assign each label of ICD 9 CM Volume 3 and 30 % to 57 % of specific Korean interventions to the semantic model.
