The ICD-10 Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) is a set of diagnosis codes used in the United States of America.[1] It was developed by a component of the U.S. Department of Health and Human services,[2] as an adaption of the ICD-10 with authorization from the World Health Organization. In 2015, ICD-10-CM replaced ICD-9-CM as the federally mandated classification. Annual updates are provided.
