2 FOCUS Documentation! Diagnosis codes that get paid. Diagnosis codes that accurately portray your patient population. 3 ICD 9 is out of date and running out of space for new codes. ICD 10 is the international standard to report and monitor disease and mortality USA must adopt for reporting and surveillance. ICD codes are core elements of many health information technology systems making the conversion to ICD 10 CM necessary to fully realize benefits of HIT adoption. It is mandated by CMS for all HIPAA covered entities. 4 2

3 Today payors use diagnosis codes to: Deny payment based on a lack of medical necessity/wrong ICD 10 code. Build payment policies based on specific diagnosis codes. Today and future payors will use diagnosis codes to Establish reimbursement in risk based contracting models. Determine payment in ACO ( shared savings) and bundled payment models. Determine patient complexity to justify inpatient status and establish postop visit benchmarks. Source: Downloads/ICD 10 guidance.pdf 5 ICD 9 CM 3 5 characters in length Approximately 14,000 codes Limited space for adding new codes Lacks detail vs. ICD 10 CM 3 7 characters in length Approximately 69,000 codes Flexibility for adding new codes Very specific 6 3

4 ICD 9 CM Code Structure ICD 10 CM Code Structure 7 Chapters First Pertinent to Character Breast Surgery C, D Neoplasms N Genitourinary (Breast) N R Z Symptoms/Signs Other Reasons for Health Care Category Etiology, Anatomic Site, Severity Extension 8 4

5 ICD 10 says: Code all documented conditions that coexist at the time of the encounter/visit, and require or affect patient care treatment or management. Examples: You send the patient to their cardiologist for a pre op evaluation for co existing cardiac conditions. The patient has ESRD and you request clearance by his physician. 9 Action: Code the primary reason for the visit (breast cancer) and the underlying conditions if they affect your treatment/surgical plan. Why? Accurately portray the complexity of your patient population. Patient complexity will impact payment models, risk based contracting, ACOs, and bundled payments. Patient complexity also impacts inpatient status, number of postop visits and more. 10 5

6 Asthma Kidney Disease Nicotine Dependence Diabetes Obesity/BMI COPD HTN/Angina/Heart Disease Alcohol Abuse/ Dependence/Use Other? Personal History of Other or Other Specified Use when information in the medical record provides needed detail, but a specific code does not exist. Examples: N64.89 Other specified disorders of the breast Galactocele 12 6

7 13 Unspecified Use when the information in the medical record is insufficient to assign a more specific code. Beware of unspecified codes! Denial risk! Example: K64.9 Disorder of breast, Unspecified 13 Laterality of one of the biggest changes in coding for disorders of the breast For example: C Malignant neoplasm of lower inner quadrant of right female breast C Malignant neoplasm of lower inner quadrant of left female breast Tip: For laterality often a 1 in a code will indicate right, a 2 will indicate left. Tip: No bilateral code exists. If the diagnosis is bilateral, use both the right and left codes. 14 7

8 Utilize technology to facilitate finding the right code! EMR, and more! 15 CHAPTER 18: SYMPTOMS, SIGNS AND ABNORMAL CLINICAL AND LABORATORY FINDINGS 16 8

9 Chapter Organization R00 R99 R Category Etiology, Anatomic Site, Severity Extension 17 Do code signs and symptoms if a definitive diagnosis is not known. You see a patient with abnormal mammogram prior to a biopsy. Do not code signs and symptoms if a more definitive diagnosis is known. For example, don t code abnormal mammogram if the biopsy shows cancer. 18 9

10 Abnormal Mammogram ICD 9 ICD Abnormal mammogram, R92.0 Mammographic microcalcification unspecified found on diagnostic imaging of breast Mammographic R92.1 Mammographic calcification found on microcalcification diagnostic imaging of breast Inconclusive mammogram R92.2 Inconclusive mammogram Other (abnormal) findings on R92.8 Other abnormal and inconclusive radiological examination of findings on diagnostic imaging of breast breast 19 Abnormal Mammogram Do NOT Say: Abnormal mammogram DO Say: Microcalcification found on mammogram 20 10

16 Most significant changes in ICD 10 Laterality. Now codes for right or left breast Male breast cancer codes expanded. Mirror female anatomic sites and laterality 31 Category of Neoplasm Type of Neoplasm Malignant, primary Malignant, secondary Carcinoma in situ Benign Uncertain behavior Unspecified Information Cancer, first site Metastatic site The risk of transforming to cancer is high Non cancer Histologic diagnosis made by pathologist, morphology of tumor is uncertain The pathology is unknown at the time of encounter 32 16

17 Overlapping sites should be classified to a.8 code unless a combination code exists. Example: C50.8. Malignant neoplasm of overlapping sites of breast 33 Primary Malignancies With overlapping site boundaries Without overlapping boundaries A primary malignancy that overlaps two or more contiguous sites should be For multiple neoplasms that are not classified to the subcategory.8 contiguous code for each site overlapping lesions, unless there is a combination code. Example: Malignant neoplasm of overlapping sites of left female breast C Example: Breast areola C50.9 Breast lower outer quadrant C

18 History of vs. Active neoplasms codes No further treatment no further treatment then use a Z85. code Example: Z85.3 Personal history of malignant neoplasm of breast [Follow up visit 3 years post surgical resection with no evidence of disease] 35 Breast Neoplasms Location Malignant Primary Malignant Secondary Ca in situ Benign Uncertain Behavior Unspecified Connective tissue, C50.9 C79.81 D05.

20 This code category has been expanded to include more specific types of carcinoma in situ. ICD 9 CM (1code) Carcinoma in situ of breast ICD 10 CM (12 codes) D05.00 Lobular carcinoma in situ of unspecified breast D05.01 Lobular carcinoma in situ of right breast D05.02 Lobular carcinoma in situ of left breast D05.10 Intraductal carcinoma in situ of unspecified breast D05.11 Intraductal carcinoma in situ of right breast D05.12 Intraductal carcinoma in situ of left breast D05.80 Other type of carcinoma in situ of unspecified breast D05.81 Other specified type of carcinoma in situ of right breast D05.82 Other specified type of carcinoma in situ of left breast D05.90 Unspecified type of carcinoma in situ of unspecified breast D05.91 Unspecified type of carcinoma in situ of right breast D05.92 Unspecified type of carcinoma in situ of left breast 39 Breast Cancer Do NOT Say: Cancer in situ, breast ( D50.90, unspecified) DO Say: Lobular carcinoma in situ, left breast (C50.02) 40 20
