DSM-5 references ICD-10 codes and provides a comprehensive list of diagnostic criteria for each recognized mental disorder. While DSM-5 and ICD-10 are maintained by different organizations, the diagnostic codes you find in DSM-5 are actually ICD-10 codes.
Developed by the World Health Organization, ICD-10 includes thousands of diagnosis codes and their corresponding descriptions for all clinical disciplines, allowing providers, insurance payers, and government agencies who use the code set to uniformly report diseases and conditions for tracking and reimbursement. The International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision (ICD-10) is the standardized code set adopted by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as mandated by the HIPAA Administrative Simplification guidelines to simplify the reporting of diagnoses and streamline communication between healthcare entities. Developed and maintained by the American Psychiatric Association (APA), DSM-5 includes nearly all of the guidance a provider may need to diagnose any recognized mental disorder, which begs the question: Why should mental health providers care about ICD-10?
