ICD Service Endpoints

Get Statistics
GET /icd/statistics

Database Schema
The application uses PostgreSQL with Prisma ORM. The ICD codes are stored in the icd_codes table with the following structure:
CREATE TABLE "icd_codes" (
"id" TEXT PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT gen_random_uuid(),
"code" TEXT UNIQUE NOT NULL,
"display" TEXT NOT NULL,
"version" TEXT NOT NULL,
"category" TEXT NOT NULL, -- "ICD9" or "ICD10"
"createdAt" TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW(),
"updatedAt" TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW()
);
ID Format: The id field now uses UUID (Universal Unique Identifier) format like 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000 instead of CUID.
