    In addition I would like to suggest that we do away with the "tripple hierachi" so that the values can be stored as numeric

    02.1.1 Bacterial with sepsis
    would then be
    02.11 Bacterial with sepsis
    02.2.1 Others with sepsis
    would then be
    02.21 Others with sepsis
    02.3.1 Unknown with sepsis
    would then be
    02.31 Unknown with sepsis
    And so forth for the rest like so:

    03.11 HCV with cirrhosis
    03.12 HCV with liver failure
    03.21 HBV with cirrhosis
    03.22 HBV with liver failure


    This would still allow the hierachi but remove the additional fullstop (.) making it into a numeric value
