VAED ICD-10-AM/ACHI library file

The ICD-10-AM/ACHI library file includes all ICD-10-AM 12th edition diagnosis, morphology, and ACHI procedure codes, together with appropriate validations, mappings, and code descriptions.

The licensing agreement only permits the Department of Health to release the library file to Victorian hospitals and software suppliers working with Victorian hospitals for the purpose of submitting data to the Victorian Admitted Episodes Dataset (VAED).

It is available by application to the HDSS helpdesk via email to hdss.helpdesk@health.vic.gov.au.
