Decode one or more US medical codes to their official descriptions across ICD-10-CM (diagnoses), ICD-10-PCS (inpatient procedures), HCPCS Level II (supplies/drugs/services), and RxNorm (drugs, by RXCUI). Also decodes a National Drug Code (NDC) directly to its RxNorm product offline, tagged `source: "NDC"` — hyphenated in an FDA segment configuration (4-4-2, 5-3-2, 5-4-1, or the 11-digit 5-4-2) or as bare 10/11 digits; any other segment widths are malformed and stay unresolved. Auto-detects the system from each code's shape; pass an explicit `system` only when a value is genuinely ambiguous. Accepts 1–50 codes and returns partial success: resolved codes in `found`, unresolved in `notFound` with a per-code reason, so one bad code never fails the batch. Set `includeHierarchy` to attach each code's parent and immediate children (with a `childrenTruncated` flag when a code has more children than the cap returns — walk the full set via medcode_browse_hierarchy or medcode_map_codes). The resolved `system` is echoed on every result for chaining into medcode_map_codes or a billability check; a code string that also exists in another bundled system carries `alsoInSystems` naming it, so a single answer to a colliding code is never mistaken for the only one.
