Introduction
Believe it or not, ICD got its start in the 1850s. The first edition was known as the International List of Causes of Death. It was used by the medical community as far back as1893. The World Health Organization (WHO) took over the responsibility in 1948 when ICD-6 was released. This edition was set apart from its predecessors by including causes of morbidity for the first time. In 1967 WHO adopted the nomenclature regulations which stipulates everyone use the most current version of ICD for mortality and morbidity statistics by all members of WHO.

There is only one big problem, the United States of America does not use it. Yes, the USA is a member of WHO.

ICD-10 was announced by WHO during the May 1990 assembly and came into use by most WHO member countries in 1994. It was first proposed to the US Health Care System as far back as 1992. Each and every time those in charge reversed direction and ICD 10 implementation was shelved.

This time many feel it is for real; many think the timing could not be worse considering the economic stresses the entire country is under. One thing we have to accept is the country has another election cycle ahead of it. Some feel this could be a platform for delaying the implementation- at this point no one is sure. ICD 10 will cause economic ripples through health care unseen since the advent of managed care. As for today, it is important to know what might be ahead, how it will effect your practice and what you can expect in your job. This course will address all of these topics and many more.
