The next meeting of the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Advisory Committee (CFSAC) takes place on Tuesday and Wednesday, 10 and 11 May 2011. A copy of the Agenda for this meeting will be posted as soon as it becomes available.
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Advisory Committee (CFSAC)
The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Advisory Committee (CFSAC) provides advice and recommendations to the Secretary of Health and Human Services via the Assistant Secretary for Health of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services on issues related to chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS).
The meeting agenda is not yet available but a list of those who have registered to give Public Testimony and who have submitted Written Testimony has been posted on the CFSAC website on this page:

It is hoped that the issue of proposed codings for the forthcoming US specific Clinical Modification of ICD-10, which will be known as “ICD-10-CM” and which is scheduled for implementation in October 2013, will have been tabled for further discussion. The CFSAC Recommendation adopted at the May 2010 meeting is problematic and requires further discussion and revision.
