https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICD-10#United_States > The implementation of ICD-10-CM has been subject to previous delays. In January 2009, the date was pushed back by two years, to October 1, 2013, rather than an earlier proposal of October 1, 2011 > The US has used ICD-10-CM since October 1, 2015 > The US also has the ICD-10 Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS),[35] a coding system that contains 76,000 procedure codes that is not used by other countries. The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from. The corollary is you know you've got a great standard when it gives you that choice within the standard itself... |
