Usage

icd9MajMinToCode(mjr, mnr, isShort)

Arguments

major	character vector of 'major' part of ICD-9 codes, i.e. that part which falls before the decimal point, in decimal notation. (In five digit notation, the 'major' part is be the first three characters (with leading zeroes), and includes V or E prefix.
minor	character vector of 'minor' part of ICD-9 codes, i.e. that part which falls after the decimal point, in decimal notation.
