About ACE

ACE provides a public platform to submit classification enhancements for ICD-10-AM/ACHI/ACS and modifications to AR-DRGs, known as Public Submissions, for the potential incorporation in a future release of the classification.
ACE also provides the ability for users to review Coding Rules related to the current edition of the ICD-10-AM/ACHI/ACS classification system. Nominated jurisdictional representatives of coding committees may also use ACE to submit coding queries on how to apply the classification.
