  • Updated ICD-10-CM lists:

    The casefinding lists are utilized to screen for potentially reportable tumors.
    It is important to note that some ICD-10-CM codes include conditions that are not reportable.
    Each record should be reviewed individually to determine whether it is reportable to the Florida Cancer Data System (FCDS).
    The implementation of ICD-10-CM is scheduled for all hospitals nationwide on October 1, 2024.
    For detailed information on reportability requirements, please refer to Section I of the FCDS 2024 Data Acquisition Manual (DAM).
    Additionally, the FCDS 2025 DAM will be available in the summer of 2025.
    Should you have any questions, please contact Megsys Herna at mherna@med.miami.edu.
