ICD-10 is the 10th revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD), a medical classification list by the World Health Organization (WHO). It contains codes for diseases, signs and symptoms, abnormal findings, complaints, social circumstances, and external causes of injury or diseases.<ref Name="WHOICD"/>

The code set allows more than 14,400 different codes and permits the tracking of many new diagnosesTemplate:Fact. The codes can be expanded to over 16,000 codes by using optional sub-classificationsTemplate:Fact. The detail reported by ICD can be further increased, with a simplified multi-axial approach, by using codes meant to be reported in a separate data fieldTemplate:Fact.

The WHO provides detailed information about ICD online, and makes available a set of materials online, such as an ICD-10 online browser,<ref>ICD-10 online browser</ref> ICD-10 Training, ICD-10 online training,<ref>ICD-10 training tool</ref> ICD-10 online training support,<ref>ICD 10 Online Support</ref> and study guide materials for download.

The International version of ICD should not be confused with national Clinical Modifications (CM) of ICD that frequently include much more detail, and sometimes have separate sections for procedures. The US ICD-10 Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM), for instance, has some 68,000 codesTemplate:Fact. The US also has the ICD-10 Procedure Coding System (ICD-10 PCS), a coding system that contains 76,000 codes not used by other countries.<ref Name="CMS_PressAug2008">Template:Cite press release</ref>

Be aware that many ICD-10 references in Wikipedia refer to ICD-10 CM (US modification), in particular if they have 5 digits (xxx.xx).

Work on ICD-10 began in 1983 and was completed in 1992.<ref Name="WHOICD">Template:Cite web</ref>

United States

The deadline for the United States to begin using Clinical Modification ICD-10-CM for diagnosis coding and Procedure Coding System ICD-10-PCS for inpatient hospital procedure coding is set at October 1, 2015,<ref>"Senate Approves ICD-10 Delay, 'Doc Fix'".March 31, 2014</ref><ref>"H.R. 4302 (Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014)".

January 15, 2009.</ref> The most recent pushback of the implementation date has inspired a mixed reaction from the healthcare community.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

Even though the deadline for ICD-10 has been pushed back repeatedly, CMS recommends that medical practices take several years to prepare for implementation of the new code set.<ref>"CMS.gov/ICD-10/Provider Resources" accessed Aug 1, 2012.</ref> The basic structure of the ICD-10 code is the following: Characters 1-3 (the category of disease); 4 (etiology of disease); 5 (body part affected), 6 (severity of illness) and 7 (placeholder for extension of the code to increase specificity) .<ref>"AHIMA ICD-10 CM Primer".</ref> Not only must new software be installed and tested, but medical practices must provide training for physicians, staff members, and administrators. They will also need to develop new practice policies and guidelines, and update paperwork and forms. For convenience, practices may also create "crosswalks" that will convert their most frequently used ICD-9 codes to the ICD-10 equivalents. <ref>"CMS ICD-10 website".</ref> <ref>"Free ICD10 data".</ref>

U.A.E (Dubai)

Dubai Health Authority (DHA) introduced ICD-10 in 2012.Template:Fact
