I cannot provide you with a PDF of new ICD-10 codes for 2025. This is because:
-
ICD-10 code updates are not released that far in advance. The official release of new and revised codes typically happens much closer to the implementation date (October 1st of each year). Any document claiming to have a complete list this early would be unreliable and potentially inaccurate.
-
Distribution of official ICD-10 information. The World Health Organization (WHO) and national agencies (like the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) in the US) are the official sources for ICD-10 codes. They release updates through their official channels, not through unofficial PDFs circulating online. Downloading from unofficial sources risks obtaining outdated or incorrect information.
Where to Find Accurate Information:
To get the most up-to-date and accurate information on new and revised ICD-10 codes for 2025 (and future years), you should consult these resources closer to the official release date in late summer or early fall of 2024:
- The WHO website: This is the primary international source for the ICD-10 classification.
- The CMS website (for the US): CMS is the responsible agency in the United States for ICD-10 implementation.
- Your national health authority's website: Check your country's official health organization website for updates relevant to your region.
- Reputable medical coding and billing resources: Several reputable companies provide coding and billing services; their websites often offer updates and interpretations of the official codes. However, always verify information with the primary sources mentioned above.
Caution against unofficial sources: Be wary of any website or PDF offering a complete list of 2025 ICD-10 codes now. These are likely inaccurate, outdated, or even fraudulent. Using incorrect codes can have serious consequences for billing and healthcare record-keeping.
