PY - 2018 DA - 2018/08/20 TI - The effect of transitioning to ICD-10-CM on acute injury surveillance of active duty service members JO - Injury Epidemiology SP - 32 VL - 5 IS - 1 AB - Acute injuries are a burden on the Military Health System and degrade service members’ ability to train and deploy. Long-term injuries contribute to early attrition and increase disability costs. To properly quantify acute injuries and evaluate injury prevention programs, injuries must be accurately coded and documented. This analysis describes how the transition from International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) to the Tenth Revision (ICD-10-CM) impacted acute injury surveillance among active duty (AD) service members.
