Correction: October 1 Deadline To Transition to ICD-10 With DSM 5
The deadline is October 1, 2015, for transitioning to the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), 10th Edition, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) with Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5).
ICD-10-CM codes are reported to insurance companies for reimbursement for clinical services.
DSM-5 is the compendium of mental disorder criteria and diagnostic codes used by clinicians in the U.S. health care system. Clinicians need to understand and appropriately use DSM-5 codes to avoid barriers to or delays in treatment.
Check out SAMHSA's resources on ICD-10 for more information on:
  • DSM-5's approach to diagnostic coding
  • How to better understand the coding changes in DSM-5
  • How DSM-5's approach is similar to and differs from that in DSM IV TR
  • Rationale behind the revisions
  • Specific clinical implications.
