In 2015, a diagnostic code for asperger’s disease was added to the icd-10 (a cookbook for medical disease). prior to 2010, there was no code to assign for the condition and thus, clinicians were inaccurately diagnosing asperger’s disease cases with “unspecified autism”. to individuals not aware of this coding scheme, it may appear that there was a huge increase in the incidence of asperger’s disease in 2016 simply because there was a specific diagnosis code for asperger’s to assign to the “unspecified autism” cases. what type of time effect is described by this evolution of disease definition?
