Changes in DSM-5 codes in ICD-10 go into effect Oct. 1

Earlier this month, the American Psychiatric Association released a supplement to the DSM-5 that updated codes for 14 diagnoses, including binge-eating disorder, disruptive mood dysregulation disorder, hoarding disorder, and premenstrual dysphoric disorder. On Oct. 1, those DSM-5 coding changes will be reflected within the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Edition, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM).

Some of the changes are minor. For example, the code for binge-eating disorder is now F50.8 and will become F50.81 on Oct. 1. Disruptive mood dysregulation disorder will change from F34.8 to F34.81, and hoarding disorder will change from F42 to F42.3.

However, some of the changes are significant. The code for premenstrual dysphoric disorder, for example, will change from N94.3 to F32.81. The changes are aimed at improving diagnostic recording, communication among clinicians, and the collection of prevalence data.
