# ICD 10 integration

# Description :

This document contains information how the ICD code will be saved in Database and how to API to fetch all the ICD codes.

# Ways to store data :

  • ICD codes has only three values : code, short description, long description.
  • We can store the data either in a JSON file or in a Table in database with above three columns.
  • We are known to a fact that all the records at any given point of time will be there at client end.
  • So client needs to fetch all the records at once, during 1st time sync.
  • For above memtioned points, both JSON file or table in Database will work fine.
  • But if in future, searching and quering is done at server end, then I would recommend it to store in database as searching will be fast at database rather than a JSON file.

# 1. Fetch the ICD 10 codes

GET : /codes/icd

# Response body

  • Response will have all the records.
