MCE1-F INPATIENT CLAIMS DIAGNOSIS EDITS contains eight tab-separated fields. Only billable diagnosis codes (i.e., coded to full specificity) are included in this file since these edits should only be applied to codes that are specific. Non-specific
codes should be edited out prior to this second level check.

Field 1 code: ICD-9 diagnosis code
Field 2 short_description: 25-character description
Field 3 male: 1 male only, 0 no edit 
Field 4 female: 1 female only, 0 no edit
Field 5 nos_principal_dx: while valid according to ICD-9-CM, these 'not otherwise specified' codes cannot be principal
Field 6 manifest_principal_dx: describes a manifestation of an underlying disease and not a disease itself so cannot be principal
Field 7 questionable_admit: some codes do not provide sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital
Field 8 unacceptable_principal_dx: health status codes that cannot be used as principal diagnoses
