Cumulative Official WHO Updates to ICD 10 - 1996 - 2001

The Center for Disease Control (CDC) recommends the classification for these deaths should be “undetermined natural causes” (ICD-10 code R99). Physicians may incorrectly code COD in patients who die of undetermined natural causes, instead listing heart disease (ICD-10 I00-I09, I11, I13, I20-I51)), or another COD, on the death certificate. ................
