ICD-10 Code Suggestions for Doctors in India

Every diagnosis can carry an ICD-10 code. Expert AI suggests relevant codes at the end of each consultation, based on the documentation you have just completed. You review and accept them. The suggestions help reduce coding errors; they are not billing or legal advice.

How Expert AI suggests codes

  1. You finish the consultation.
  2. Expert AI suggests ICD-10 diagnosis codes from your note.
  3. You review, change or remove any code before it goes into the chart.

ICD-10 in India

  • ICD-10 is the World Health Organization's classification of diseases. A 2015 journal study reports that India's Ministry of Health recommended ICD-10 as the reporting standard in its 2013 electronic medical record standards (CHRISMED Journal).
  • Adoption is uneven. Reports note that accredited hospitals mostly follow it, and that insurers and the regulator IRDAI have promoted coding to speed up claims (Medical Dialogues).
  • The technical guide for the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission includes a value set of ICD-10 diagnostic codes (ABDM FHIR guide).
