Whether you’re a medical coder, auditor, or compliance professional, staying up to date on 2026 ICD-10-CM updates is crucial for accurate reporting and reducing claim denials.
This year’s updates include numerous adjustments across multiple chapters, with some of the most impactful changes occurring in Chapter 19 (Injury, Poisoning, and Certain Other Consequences of External Causes). Coders should also be aware of changes to HIV coding guidelines, new BMI reporting guidance, and additional codes for non-pressure chronic ulcers.
Understanding these changes ahead of time allows you to update your internal processes, train your team, and avoid costly errors after the October 1 effective date.
