Under Downloads you will find the current versions of the classifications published by BfArM, but also all archive versions. You can also download all proposals received since 2008 as part of the ICD-10-GM and OPS proposal process. (In German language only.)

In the chronological overview you will find current news on the code systems. With our free newsletter "Klassifikationen Aktuell" you will receive news from BfArM about the section code systems, e.g. about new versions and updates of the classifications (ICD, OPS, etc.) during the year.

Here you will find all online versions of the classifications ICD-10-GM, OPS, ICD-10-WHO, ICD-O-3 and ICF published by the BfArM. The integrated code search and the high linking density allow convenient navigation between the codes within the entire classification. Under Supplementary information, the prefixes and appendices of the book versions are also included. (In German language only.)

With the coding questions on ICD-10-GM and OPS, the BfArM provides questions and answers on the classification of diagnoses as well as operations and procedures. General questions about the classifications can be found under FAQ. (In German language only.)

Object Identifiers (OID) are number chains for the identification of these objects and messages, whereby objects are information units such as institutions, classifications, messages, documents or tables.

You can order the ICF book edition (in German language) directly from the BfArM using the order request form. The valid version from 2005 was reprinted unchanged in 2021.

Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions and the contact person for the section Code systems.
