Of the 2.3 million deaths that occur each year 80-85 percent are automatically coded through Super-MICAR, and the remaining records are then manually coded by nosologists, a medical classification specialist [24] ; this is a tedious and lengthy process lasting up to 3 months. Although the automation process has decreased the time required for coding death data to 1-2 weeks, the national vital statistics data is not available for at least two years. Therefore, local health department still manually code records or perform basic process techniques to quickly characterize disease patterns [25] .
