Your 2016 ICD-10-CM Coding for Chiropractic is a lot more useful than you might know. Most are familiar with the Anatomic Diagnosis Code List - always a ChiroCode favorite. Well, we added a whole new section.

The seven areas are:
1. Disc Disorders
2. Headaches
3. Muscle Conditions
4. Pain and Stiffness
5. Radiculopathy and Sciatica
