This repo contains my ICD-9-CM and ICD-10-CM SAS programs for drug poisoning surveilliance.
These programs are based on recommended surveilliance indicators for public health state health departments. For more information on using hospital discharge claims and emergency department claims data for public healt surveilliance, please see the following links:
