No, not until 2015 will the US require EMR systems to be using ICD-10. The ICDs are developed and promulgated by the World Health Organization, and I suspect the US has been a bit slow to join in because a) anything coming out of the United Nations is politically toxic to about a quarter of the electorate, and b) US healthcare is a patchwork of private businesses and promulgating any sort of new standard leads to endless complaints about 'government red tape' and so on.
Anyone who is already using ICD-10 can code for Ebola, which is A98.4. So if you were a clinician billing the government, they're ready to accept ICD-10 coding, and I imagine most insurance companies are too. But lots of people are still stuck on ICD-9, same way many businesses were stuck on Internet Explorer 6 and windows XP for the longest time.
