1. ICD-10 Do I really have to? Richard Lander, MD, FAAP

2. ICD 10 Why spend all this money and time to implement ICD 10 when they are already planning ICD 11? (release 2019?) ICD 10 is not new, is used by many countries and we, the USA have lagged behind for too long

3. ICD 10 ICD 10 was developed back in the 1980’s Globally began use in 1994 Has been used in the United States since 1999 to help report mortality statistics

4. ICD 10 Typically October 1 marks the beginning of new ICD codes, the deletion of certain codes and the modification of certain codes. October 1, 2013 did not have any deleted or revised codes

5. ICD 10 October 1, 2015- let the fun begin

6. BASIC CODING Coding is how we get paid CPT identifies the type of service provided ICD provides the diagnosis HCPCS identifies supplies utilized

7. BASIC CODING International Statistical Class of Diseases and Related Health Problems United States ICD-10-CM (clinical med) US ICD-10-PCS (Procedural Coding System)

8. ICD 10 You will have to utilize the ICD 10 codes after October 1, 2015 to be paid by the insurance companies as they will not honor the ICD 9 codes. Your HCFA 1500 claims will not be processed! However both the payers and the providers will need to support ICD 9 codes for claims submitted prior to October 1, 2015

9. ICD 10 July 2015 Medicare announced a grace period of one year to pay claims even if ICD 10 codes are not specific enough Will the private insurers and Medicaid follow suit???

10. ICD 10 The transition will not be this easy Be prepared to keep your systems for ICD 9 going until all of your claims are paid

11. ICD 10 Practices should have close to a 90 day money reserve set aside in anticipation of claims not being paid or of delayed payments.

12. ICD 10 Everyone needs to be taught ICD 10 Doctors, nursing staff, coding and billing people, and the INSURERS

13. ICD 10 Shouldn’t it be easy to simply “crosswalk” ICD 9 codes to ICD 10? Can you put a round circle into a square hole?

14. ICD 10 Wouldn’t you like some GEMS? GENERAL EQUIVALENCE MAPPINGS helps to convert ICD 9 to ICD 10

16. ICD 10 The number of codes are so extensive because they will now demonstrate: laterality (right vs left) specificity (thumb, pointer finger, etc) reasons or causes where did it happen (home, work) how (jumping-trampoline)

17. ICD 10 What is one of the more common problems we see in our pediatric offices?

18. ICD 10 Acute supporitive otitis media w/o rupture ICD 9 382.00 ICD 10 H66.001 asom w/o rupture R ear H66.002 asom w/o rupture L ear H66.003 asom w/o rupture bilat H66.004 asom w/o rupture recurrent R Etc. Etc. Etc.

20. OH NO, MORE WORK NOW with the greater amount of specificity involved with choosing the ICD 10 code there will have to be more detailed documentation to support the use of codes which should GIVE BETTER PATIENT CARE

26. 7 th Character Examples These will usually be found in certain ICD 10 categories such as: Pregnancy and Childbirth-chapter 15 Injury, Poisoning and Certain Other Consequences of External Causes-ch 19 during the initial encounter use A during the subsequent encounter use D a sequela of the issue would use S

37. ICD 10 First check the index for the condition, disease, symptom or sign The first character is an alpha Then use the three digit numeric characters to help you in the numbered Tabular section

38. ICD 10 A dash (-) at the end of the Index entry means that more characters are needed HINT if you don’t see the dash don’t assume that a seventh character (numeric or alpha) is not needed-check the Tabular list

39. ICD 10 Z00.110 “Health supervision under 8 days” Z00.111 “Health supervision newborn 8 to 28 days old” How about Z00.129 “Routine child health check” Z00.121 “Routing child health check with abnormal findings” plus what was found
