WLS Codebooks

Note: Codebooks contain frequency data from the private data release. For some variables, these differ from the frequencies in the public release. Variables that differ between the public and private versions include "(not available on public release)" as part of the variable description, or a note indicating the difference between the public and private versions.

Phone/Mail: ICD-10 Variables

GICD10  ICD-10 Variables

OVERVIEW

  There are 78 ICD-9 variables in the 2004 graduate phone and mail interview. 
The variables in this module are simply a recode of these 78 ICD-9 variables. 
That is, a conversion mapping was applied to change the code to ICD-10.  The
graduate's original response was not reviewed for the ICD-10 variable.
 
  Please note that the original ICD-9 variables also include ICF codes and
ICD-9 Volume 3 codes.  There are no ICD-10 equivalent for these codes and thus
are coded -2 (inappropriate). Also, there is no collapsed version of these
(mostly private) ICD-10 variables.  Since the collapsed ICD-9 codes are public
and the code scheme is somewhat arbitrary, there is no need for a collapsed
ICD-10 variable.
