ABSTRACT
The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) serves as a global healthcare administration standard, with one of its editions being ICD-10-CM, an enhanced diagnostic classification system featuring numerous new codes for specific anatomic sites, co-morbidities, and causes. These additions facilitate conveying the complexities of various diseases. Currently, ICD-10 coding is widely adopted worldwide. However, public hospitals in Pakistan have yet to implement it and automate the coding process. In this research, we implemented ICD-10-CM coding for a private database and named it Clinical Pool of Liver Transplant (CPLT). Additionally, we proposed a novel deep learning model called Deep Recurrent-Convolution Neural Network with a lambda-scaled Attention module (DRCNN-ATT) using the CPLT database to achieve automatic ICD-10-CM coding. DRCNN-ATT combines a bi-directional long short-term memory network (bi-LSTM), a multi-scale convolutional neural network (MS-CNN), and a lambda-scaled attention module. Experimental results demonstrate that deep recurrent convolutional neural network (DRCNN) faces attention score vanishing problem with a standard attention module for automatic ICD coding. However, adding a lambda-scaled attention module resolves this issue. We evaluated DRCNN-ATT model using two distinct datasets a private CPLT dataset and a public MIMIC III top 50 dataset. The results indicate that the DRCNN-ATT model outperformed various baselines by generating 0.862 micro F1 and 0.25 macro F1 scores on CPLT dataset and 0.705 micro F1 and 0.655 macro F1 scores on MIMIC III top 50 dataset. Furthermore, we also deployed our model for automatic ICD-10-CM coding using ngrok and the Flask APIs, which receives input, processes it, and then returns the results.
