2019 ICD10 Update

I have not updated the ICD10 codes but I found excellent instructions for the 2018 update however the 2019 update does not include GEM files. I can only find the “2019-ICD-10-CM-Code-Descriptions.zip” file. So do I follow the same instructions with this single file?

Thanks!

yes, guess cms figured there’s no more need 2019 icd10 files for external dataload (#1845) · openemr/openemr@922b4ae · GitHub

here are the code descriptions that are placed in the contrib/icd10 folder:
https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Coding/ICD10/Downloads/2019-ICD-10-CM-Code-Descriptions.zip
https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Coding/ICD10/Downloads/2019-ICD-10-PCS-Order-File.zip

I downloaded the files and uploaded them to the server.
Ok, now I have this error message:
What do I do now?
