ICD-9-CM Coordination and Maintenance Committee
Recognizing the ICD-9-CM as a dynamic statistical tool that must be flexible to meet expanding classification needs, the ICD-9-CM Coordination and Maintenance Committee was created as a forum for proposals to update ICD-9-CM. A representative from the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) and one from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) co-chair the ICD-9-CM Coordination and Maintenance Committee meetings. Responsibility for maintenance of the ICD-9-CM is divided between the two agencies, with classification of diagnoses (volumes 1 and 2) by NCHS and of procedures (volume 3) by CMS.
Although the ICD-9-CM Coordination and Maintenance Committee is a Federal Committee, suggestions for modifications come from both the public and private sectors. Interested parties are asked to submit recommendations for modification prior to a scheduled meeting. Proposals for a new code should include a description of the code being requested, and rationale for why the new code is needed. Supporting references and literature may also be submitted. Proposals should be consistent with the structure and conventions of the classification.
These meetings are open to the public; comments are encouraged both at the meetings and in writing. Recommendations and comments are carefully reviewed and evaluated before any final decisions are made. No decisions are made at the meetings. The ICD-9-CM Coordination and Maintenance Committee’s role is advisory. All final decisions are made by the Director of NCHS and the Administrator of CMS. Final decisions are made after the December meeting and become effective October 1 of the following year. Official code revision packages, which are referred to as addenda, are available from this site.
The minutes for the most recent meeting will include the deadline for comments on the most recent meeting, the scheduled dates for the next meeting, along with the deadline for receipt of modification proposals, and the mailing address and e-mail address to send either modification proposals or comments on proposals. The agenda for an upcoming meeting is posted here approximately one month prior to the meeting.
Minutes and Proposals for the diagnosis portion of the meetings are listed below. Information about the procedure portion of the meeting is available from the CMS web site.
