Update: Crazy Like Us: How the U.S. Exports Its Models of Illness – DSM-5 is Americanizing the world’s understanding of the mind by Christopher Lane, Ph.D. in Side Effects, October 9, 2013

This report relates to proposals submitted via the September ICD-9-CM/PCS Coordination and Maintenance Committee meeting for the inclusion of additional codes to the forthcoming US specific ICD-10-CM.

The twice yearly ICD-9-CM Coordination and Maintenance Committee meetings provide a public forum to discuss proposed code changes to ICD-9-CM and the ICD-10-CM/PCS. Next year, the committee, which is co-chaired by CMS and CDC, will be renamed to the ICD-10-CM Coordination and Maintenance Committee.

ICD-10-CM/PCS is scheduled for implementation in October 2014 and currently subject to partial code freeze.

The meeting scheduled on September 18, 2013 was devoted to both diagnosis and procedure code topics. The second day of the meeting, September 19, continued discussions related to diagnosis code topics.

Below are links for key meeting materials, four videocasts, and agenda item listings for the diagnosis proposals presented on Day Two (videocast Part 4). This includes the presentation of proposals by American Psychiatric Association (APA) Director of Research, Darrel Regier, MD, for insertion of new DSM-5 diagnoses into the ICD-10-CM.

[Unofficial transcription from videocast]

Donna Pickett (CDC): “…And just to complete the package, there are other Tabular List proposals that appear on Page 45 and 46 that we would also invite your comments on. And again, with some of the terminology changes that Dr Regier has described the intent here is to make sure that if those terms are being used, that they do have a home somewhere within ICD-10-CM to facilitate people looking these up. So we invite comments. We’re showing the Tabular List proposed changes; however, there obviously would be associated Alphabetic Index changes with that which we didn’t show just to keep the package a little bit smaller…”

No questions or comments from the floor or by phone link on any of the proposed inclusion terms listed on Pages 45 and 46 under “Additional Tabular List Inclusion Terms for ICD-10-CM”.

1hr:40 mins in: Donna Pickett (CDC) brings meeting to a close.

[Unofficial transcription from videocast]

Donna Pickett (CDC): “…November 15…is in the Topic Package for receipt of comments on all of the proposals. That is the deadline, but we’d love to have them sooner as this does have implications in terms of what does become part of an addenda or not, and that would be specific to the inclusion terms in the Tabular List and Alphabetical Index because, again, unless the proposal meets the criteria established for the partial freeze, no new codes are being entertained except for the ones that were requested. We invite your comments on that as well…”
