Abstract
This chapter examines the extent of use of ICD-10 codes in health systems in general, and its use for diagnosing CM in LMICs in particular. Institutional arrangements, policy requirements, and practices of health professionals in relation to recognizing, documenting, and reporting CM as a public health issue, as well as some of the impeding factors to effective ICD use will be discussed.-
