Any links to find info regarding new icd-10cm codes/changes and guidelines? We are trying to decide if we need to order a new 2016 ICD-10CM code book or not.
Thanks.
There were no changes to the codes or guidelines from ICD-10 CM 2015 to ICD-10 CM 2016. The codes are allowed to be updated twice a year which is OCt 1 and April 1 and guidelines may be updated whenever they feel there is a need. So far no new guidelines.
