Submit comments on proposed ICD-10 codes

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) Coordination and Maintenance Committee is seeking comments on proposed ICD-10 codes. The committee is a federal interdepartmental committee, which allows the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to share responsibility for the ICD-10 code set. Suggestions for modifications come from both the public and private sectors. The proposals currently being shared for public comment were reviewed during the March committee meeting.
