Terms of Use for the 2018 ICD-10-CA/CCI Evolution Table 2018

The Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) has developed ICD-10-CA as a Canadian modification of the World Health Organization’s Tenth Revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10).

The Canadian Classification of Health Interventions (CCI) was developed by CIHI to accompany ICD-10-CA.

CIHI has developed the ICD-10-CA and CCI Trending (Evolution) Table, 2018 (the 2018 Evolution Table) to trace the heritage of a current code.
