2024-02-12 Coding Deaths as a result of a terror attack

 Hello everyone,

 We would like to know what code other countries give for death as a result of a terror attack, for example France (Paris 2015, Nice 2016), Germany (Berlin in the Christmas market 2016) etc.

 Thank you for your help.

Response from Austria

 Dear All,

 In our opinion, the following ICD codes (ICD 10) should be used for terrorism:

 Z65.4 as an addition (victim of terrorism) as well as the respective injury in combination with "assault" X65 to Y09.

 Best regards

Response from Donna Hoyert, USA

 

In reaction to the September 11, 2001 events in the US, we created US-specific codes. We tabulate these US-specific codes with homicide and suicide.
