New information has been added to the ICD10 page on LinkNet. You can watch an overview video and review tip sheets. There is also background information about this important change coming next year that will improve the quality of the health information we are documenting. Additional information will be posted in the future.ICD-10, or the tenth revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, will replace the current ICD-9 on Oct. 1, 2014. The federal government has mandated this. ICD-10 represents a massive transition that requires preparation by many people across TriHealth, including physicians, nurses, support staff, coders, and patient accounting. Many of these departments are well into their training on the new system.
