a) ICD-10 Recommendation #1 • Remove all links and references to histopathology codes in the ICD-10

index and do not add the updated ICD-O-3 codes. Add a link to ICD-O-3 within ICD-10 so that all users have the most up to date information. The link should refer to the respective WHO website where that version can be found.

b) ICD-10 Recommendation #2• That there be another major update to ICD-10 in 2019.

c) ICD-10 Recommendation #3• That the most recent version of ICD-10 be on the WHO website before

the next URC submission round  to reduce the risk of errors and  minimize confusion. 

d) ICF Recommendation #1 • That a 2015 version of ICF be published on WHO website that includes

all updates that have been approved so far. This version  should be available as an online version and in PDF format.
