Medical coders participating in an ICD-10 coding pilot produced
accurate coding using the complex new system less than two-thirds

Accuracy rates varied widely by type of medical condition coded.
For example, a case of acute gastritis without bleeding was coded
accurately 100% of the time in one batch or "wave" of test results,
while "chest pain, unspecified" was coded accurately in only 34% of
records tested in a different batch.
