ICD-10
Encyclopedia
The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision (known as "ICD-10") is a medical classification
list for the coding of diseases, signs and symptoms, abnormal findings, complaints, social circumstances, and external causes of injury or diseases, as maintained by the World Health Organization
(WHO). The code set allows more than 14,400 different codes and permits the tracking of many new diagnoses. Using optional subclassifications, the codes can be expanded to over 16,000 codes. Using codes that are meant to be reported in a separate data field, the level of detail that is reported by ICD can be further increased, using a simplified multiaxial approach.
WHO provides detailed information about ICD online, and makes available a set of materials online, such as an ICD-10 online browser, ICD10Training ICD-10 online training, ICD-10 online training support, and study guide materials for download.
The International version of ICD should not be confused with national Clinical Modifications of ICD that include frequently much more detail, and sometimes have separate sections for procedures. For instance, the US ICD-10 CM has some 68,000 codes. The US also has ICD-10 PCS a procedure code system not used by other countries that containes 76,000 codes.
Work on ICD-10 began in 1983 and was completed in 1992.
introduced a clinical addendum to ICD-10 in 2005. See also website of the ATIH.
The codes F64.1 (Dual-role transvestism), F64.2 (Gender identity disorder of childhood), F65.0 (Fetishism), F65.1 (Fetishistic transvestism), F65.5 (Sadomasochism), F65.6 (Multiple disorders of sexual preference) are not used in Sweden since 1 January 2009 according to a decision by the present Director General of The National Board of Health and Welfare, Sweden. The code O60.0 is not used in Sweden. Since 1 January 2009 the Swedish extension codes to O47 are recommended for use, instead of O60.0.
Now Ministry of Public Health have **ICD 10 TM**
for diagnosis coding and Procedure Coding System ICD-10-PCS
for inpatient hospital procedure coding. All HIPAA "covered entities" must make the change; a pre-requisite to ICD-10 is the adoption of EDI
Version 5010 by January 1, 2012. The implementation of ICD-10 has already been delayed. In January 2009, the date was pushed back by two years, to October 1, 2013 rather than a prior proposal of October 1, 2011.
