Abstract
In this paper, we introduce an intelligent medical assistant tool that offers the ability to suggest appropriate medical diagnostic coding during the examination process through a friendly user interface. Furthermore the tool offers the capability to match medical coding definitions from one standard to another such as ICD 10 and SNOMED CT. The tool has three main functions: a) Easy Search, b) Coding Suggestion and c) Coding Interoperability.
