Generating a FHIR ConceptMap from WHO’s ICD-10 to ICD-11 Mapping Tables

Stud Health Technol Inform. 2025 May 15;327:1308-1312. doi: 10.3233/SHTI250614.

ABSTRACT

The mapping from the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision (ICD-10) to the 11th Revision (ICD-11), initiated by the World Health Organization (WHO), presents a challenge for healthcare systems, most of which currently rely on extensive ICD-10 coded data for billing purposes. This paper introduces a methodology to generate a FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) ConceptMap from the WHO-provided ICD-10 to ICD-11 mapping tables. The resulting ConceptMap allows healthcare organizations to automate the mapping process, facilitating the integration of ICD-11. The final ConceptMap includes ICD-11 mappings for 12,952 ICD-10 codes. This approach prepares healthcare systems for the transition to ICD-11.
