Analyzes the costs and benefits of updating the International
Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision (ICD-9-CM) codes for
diagnoses and procedures to their ICD-10 equivalents. Presents
RAND's analysis of the benefits and costs of mandating a switch
(either simultaneously or sequentially) from the International
Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision, codes for diagnoses and
procedures to two code sets based on the 10th revision. The author
concludes that that switching to both ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS is
likely to generate more benefits than costs and that the switch, if
it takes place, should be simultaneous.
