Diagnosis Code Tally

Locate every ICD-10 code mentioned in this clinical note so a downstream script can list unique codes with frequency counts. Create one check per code mention — if the same code appears multiple times, create a separate check for each occurrence. Do not interpret the diagnoses or evaluate coding quality; just record where each code appears.

- For each ICD-10 code mentioned in the clinical note, create a separate check. Mark as passed if the code is accompanied by a clear diagnosis description that matches the code. Mark as failed if the code appears without a description, or if the description does not match the standard meaning of the code. #value — save as the ICD-10 code exactly as written in the document (e.g. 'E11.65', 'I10', 'J06.9', 'M17.11', 'L08.9', 'Z79.84'). Place the highlight around the specific ICD code and its surrounding diagnosis text.
