OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the documentation of menopause-related International Classification of Diseases-10 (ICD-10) codes in the electronic health record (EHR) among midlife women with moderate or greater menopause symptoms receiving primary care.
METHODS: This cross-sectional study from the Hormones and Experiences of Aging (HERA) cohort included women aged 45-60 years receiving primary care at one of 4 Mayo Clinic sites who completed a one-time survey between March 1, 2021 and June 30, 2021. The survey captured demographic data, menopause symptoms using the Menopause Rating Scale (MRS), health care utilization, and treatment. Women with an MRS score ≥12 were included. The primary outcome was documentation of a menopause-related ICD-10 code in the EHR in the 12 months before survey completion.
RESULTS: Of 5,254 women with completed surveys, 2,414 (49%) had an MRS score ≥12 and were included. Among these, 1,519 (63%) reported seeking care for their menopause symptoms in the past 12 months, but only 345 (23%) had a menopause-related ICD-10 code. Women with an ICD-10 code had higher MRS scores (18 [IQR: 14-22] vs 17 [IQR: 14-20]; P = 0.002) and were more likely to use systemic hormone therapy (HT; 26% vs 9%; P < 0.001), and vaginal HT (20% vs 6%; P < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS: Menopause-related ICD-10 diagnosis codes were under-documented in women with significant menopause symptom burden. Those with a code were more likely to report menopause treatment. These findings highlight a critical gap between symptom burden and diagnosis coding in the EHR, underscoring the need to improve identification and management of menopause symptoms.
