Cautions

These are tools used by a neurology physician billing web application I have written. The tools have some stand-alone uses, and this is the reason they are included here. The diagnosis lists and the tabular lists are both large files. You will want a fast internet connection and a fast computer. Modem users will be unhappy. The Complete Tabular List in HTML was made by Microsoft Word 10 from the CDC's RTF file. Internet Explorer seems perfectly happy with the file, but on computers with less than 256K memory, Mozilla, Firefox, and Netscape seem to have some issues with it. With more memory they're all happy.
