Thanks for your answer! Do you want ctakes to never find codes from certain schemes during processing? yes exactly this is what I am shooting for, if I dont need them at the moment I dont want them found. suppose I have icd10 and icd9, I want it to not find icd9 when I am looking for 10 and nice versa.
