ICD-10 -CM Compliance Dates • ICD-10 -CM will be valid for dates of service on or after October 1, 2015 – Outpatient dates of service of October 1, 2015 and beyond. – Inpatient hospital service claims, is effective for dates of discharge after September 30, 2015

ICD-10 Code Structure • 21 Chapters • Alpha-numeric codes; not case-sensitive – Codes begin with Alpha letter, A-Z, excluding U – Common errors • I verses 1 • O verses 0 • “X” Placeholder • 3 to 7 characters – Decimal following 3 rd character

ICD-10 Code Structure • Placeholder “X” – Used for future expansion of a code

ICD-10 Code Structure • Placeholder “X” – Used for future expansion of a code – Fills in empty characters when a 6 th and/or 7 th character apply – The placeholder may be used in different scenarios but should never serve as the final character. Example: W 19. XXXA Unspecified fall, Initial Encounter

ICD-10 Code Structure • Laterality – Some ICD-10 -CM codes indicate laterality, specifying whether the condition occurs on the left, right or is bilateral. – If no bilateral code is provided and the condition is bilateral, assign separate codes for both the left and right side. – If the side is not identified in the medical record, assign the code for the unspecified side. OGCR section 1. B. 13

ICD-10 Code Structure • “Other” Codes – Codes titled “other” or “other specified” are for use when the information in the medical record provides detail for which a specific code does not exist. • “Unspecified” Codes – Codes titled “unspecified” are for use when the information in the medical record is insufficient to assign a more specific code. OGCR section 1. A. 9. a. b

ICD-10 Code Structure • “Code First” and “Use Additional Code” – ICD-10 has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. – These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the codes.

Documentation Tips • Use of symptom codes – Codes that describe symptoms and signs

Documentation Tips • Use of symptom codes – Codes that describe symptoms and signs are acceptable for reporting purposes when a related definitive diagnosis has not been established (confirmed) by the provider. • Use of a symptom code with a definitive diagnosis code – Codes for signs and symptoms may be reported in addition to a related definitive diagnosis when the sign or symptom is not routinely associated with that diagnosis, such as the various signs and symptoms associated with complex syndromes. The definitive diagnosis code should be sequenced before the symptom code. – Signs or symptoms that are associated routinely with a disease process should not be assigned as additional codes, unless otherwise instructed by the classification. • Combination codes that include symptoms – ICD-10 -CM contains a number of combination codes that identify both the definitive diagnosis and common symptoms of that diagnosis. When using one of these combination codes, an additional code should not be assigned for the symptom.

Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting Underdosing refers to taking less of a medication

Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting Underdosing refers to taking less of a medication than is prescribed by a provider or a manufacturer’s instruction. For underdosing, assign the code from categories T 36 -T 50 (fifth or sixth character “ 6”). Codes for underdosing should never be assigned as principal or first-listed codes. If a patient has a relapse or exacerbation of the medical condition for which the drug is prescribed because of the reduction in dose, then the medical condition itself should be coded. Noncompliance (Z 91. 12 -, Z 91. 13 -) or complication of care (Y 63. 6 -Y 63. 9) codes are to be used with an underdosing code to indicate intent, if known. OGCR Section 1. C. 19. e. 5. c
