How to browse the code list, search, and read a code with its rules.
The left window is one list. Press a chapter to open its code groups. Press a code group to open its codes. Opening one closes the other, so the part you chose moves to the top and the rest stays above it.
Type a code (E13.21), a condition (diabetic nephropathy) or any word that appears in a rule. Every word you type must match. Results show codes whose name matches first, then codes whose rules mention your words. Use the arrow keys and Enter, or press / to jump to the search box from anywhere.
The right window shows the full path from the chapter down, with every step a link. Under the code you see the other codes at the same level, then the rules, each with where it was written. Codes named in a rule can be pressed to open them. The page address holds the code, so you can send a link to a colleague.
