1 Teresa Stallman, MBA, RHIT AHIMA Approved ICD-10 Trainer Diagnosis Coding and Documentation ICD-10-CM

2 Agenda Overview of ICD-10-CM Challenges Keys to engaging clinicians Coding examples Resources

3 Overview of ICD-10-CM

4 Overview: ICD-10-CM International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Effective date: Oct. 1, 2015 Dates of service: Office visits: Oct. 1, 2015 Inpatient spanning before/after Oct. 1, 2015 Do not split bill Usage: Improve health outcomes Improve clinical pathways

5 Comparison: ICD-9 to ICD-10 ICD-9-CM*ICD-10-CM* Diagnosis UsageInpatient/Outpatient; provider office Number of CharactersConsists of three to five charactersConsists of three to seven characters Format First digit is numeric or alpha Second, third, fourth, and fifth digits are numeric Always at least three digits Decimal placed after the first three characters First digit alpha All letters used except U Second and third characters may be numeric or alpha Subcategory: o Fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh digits can be alpha or numeric Decimal placed after the first three characters Number of CodesApproximately 14,000Approximately 68,000

6 Challenges

7 New coding/reporting system Guideline changes for ICD-10 Training Confidence EMR software Superbill or cheat sheets: Refine Clinician’s involvement What if my clinicians wish to provide ICD-10-CM codes? Will documentation be complete to allow for ICD10-CM assignment?

8 Things to avoid Using cheat sheets or coding by memory Selecting unspecified code without looking into other options No documentation of cause/effect relationship Incorrect use of “history of” terminology Conditions not documented as chronic Conditions not supported by MEAT (monitored, evaluated, assessed, treated) Incomplete coding of complications and comorbidities Unacceptable signatures

9 Keys to Engaging with Clinicians

10 Before engaging with clinicians Compare ICD-9 and ICD-10 coding guidelines Identify the top services for the practice and/or by clinician Review documentation of medical records Code medical record ICD-10 scenarios Identify gaps in documentation Create templates by diagnosis, focusing on necessary elements: Incorporating identified changes in coding guidelines for ICD-10 Identify the clinician(s) who consistently document fully: Liaison to clinician peers

11 Engaging your clinicians Present findings By identified service De-identify provider name Include reimbursement Develop action plan for improvement Repeat audit

18 Case #3: Answer ICD-10 Codes: Z00.00 – Encounter for general adult medical examination without abnormal findings I12.0 - Hypertensive chronic kidney disease stage V chronic kidney disease or end stage renal disease N18.5 - Chronic kidney disease, stage V E11.9 - Type 2 diabetes mellitus without complications Z79.4 - Long-term (current) use of insulin

19 Case study #4: Pregnancy Chief Complaint: OB/GYN routine follow-up visit HPI: This 22-year-old pleasant lady with diabetes mellitus type 1 in her second trimester of pregnancy comes in for a follow-up visit.
