Mapping tables show the correspondence between ICD-10 and ICD-11 codes.  Each ICD-10 concept is located within ICD-11 although due 
to critical advances in science and medicine, ICD-10 concepts may no longer have a unique code in ICD-11.  In some instances, these 
critical advances along with the increase in scope of the content, necessitated movement of ICD-10 concepts into new chapters or new 
locations in ICD-11.
The mapping tables are also provided to assist with the transition to ICD-11 based grouping methodologies and to facilitate trending 
of data between ICD-10 and ICD-11.  

Below are the explanations of the columns used in the mapping files:




ICD10Chapter					:Chapter in which this entity is located
