So have you all seen the new chapter for ICD-10 CM effective April 1, 2020?
Chapter 22 Codes for Special Purposes (U00-U85)
U00-U49 Provisional assignment of new diseases of uncertain etiology or emergency use

U07 Conditions of uncertain etiology
U07.0 Vaping-related disorder
Use additional code to identify manifestations
 
How am I barely hearing about this? I have not heard but wow, this is crazy. I am assuming they will be releasing new books then?
 
It was actually posted the end of December, I don’t know about new code books since it only one new code but I would not be surprised. There may also be revised guidelines coming soon.
