ICD-10 coding refers to the 10th revision of the International Classification of Diseases, a medical classification list by the World Health Organization (WHO). It serves as a standardized system for coding a wide array of health conditions and diseases. Each health condition is assigned a unique code that is used globally. These codes are used not only for diagnosis and documentation but also for insurance billing, epidemiological research, and many other administrative aspects of health care.
