What is ICD-10 CM and ICD-10 PCS
ICD-10 is the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) modified ICD-10 for use in the U.S. by classifying the codes into two categories: ICD-10 CM and ICD-10 PCS.
ICD-10 CM
The U.S. Clinical Modification (CM) of
WHO ICD-10 will be used by both
Providers and Inpatient Hospitals.
ICD-10 PCS
The U.S. Procedure Coding System
(PCS) will be used for Inpatient
Hospital procedures.
CPT
CPT codes cover the following Outpatient settings:
- Hospital Outpatient - Behavioral Health
- All Other Facilities
ICD-10: Compliance Update

Horizon BCBSNJ will not accept ICD-10 claims prior to October 1, 2015.
