Basic ICD-10 INFORMATION

World Health Organization (WHO) authorized the publication of the International Classification of DiseasesExternal 10th Revision (ICD-10), which was implemented for mortality coding and classification from death certificates in the U.S. in 1999. The U.S. developed a Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) for medical diagnoses based on WHO’s ICD-10. This medical classification list is generated by the World Health Organization (WHO), and is used to help healthcare providers identify and code health conditions.

ICD-10 is required for use by physicians and healthcare providers under the Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act (HIPAA) and will replace all ICD-9 code sets. There are nearly 5 times as many diagnosis codes in ICD-10-CM than in ICD-9-CM.ICD-10 has alphanumeric categories instead of numeric ones.

Advanced Search Help

Advanced search lets you search selected properties of the classification. You could search all properties or a selected subset only

First, you need to provide keywords in the Search Text field then check the properties that you'd like to include in the search.

The system will search for the keywords in the properties that you've checked and rank the results similar to a search engine

The results will be displayed in the Search Results pane. If the search query hits more than 200 results, then only the top 200 will be displayed.

If you provide more than one keyword, the system will search for items that have all the keywords.

Wildcards: You may also use wildcard character * . see examples below.

OR operator : It's possible to have the results that have either one or another keyword. Please see the example 4.

Examples:

1. Search Text: diabetes {finds all that have the word "diabetes" in the searched fields}

2. Search Text: diabet* {finds all that have a word that start with "diabet" }

3. Search Text: diabet* mellitus {finds all that have a word that starts with "diabet" and also contains the word "mellitus"}

4. Search Text: tubercul* (lung OR larynx) { finds all that have a word that starts with "tubercul" and than has either lung OR larynx in it

Search Results

After the search the results are displayed at the lower right area of the screen. Here the porgram lists the titles of the ICD categories in which your search keywords are found.

Clicking on any result will take you to that category
