Prepare Your Systems for ICD-10 2023

The World Health Organization (WHO) has released its list of ICD-10 additions, deletions, and revisions for 2023 — and there’s a lot to unpack in the updates.

Nuts and bolts: ICD-10 2023 will feature:

  • 1,468 new codes,
  • 251 deleted codes,
  • 35 revised codes, and
  • 36 codes converted to parent.

Heads up: The changes carry an effective date of Oct. 1, 2022, so you may want to begin preparing your coding team now so you’re set on day one.
