Loss of bone mass and strength due to nutritional, metabolic, or other factors, usually resulting in deformity or fracture; a major public health problem of the elderly, especially women. A disorder characterized by reduced bone mass, with a decrease in cortical thickness and in the number and size of the trabeculae of cancellous bone (but normal chemical composition), resulting in increased fracture incidence. Z Encounter for screening for other digestive system disorders. Patients dread certain preventive services that require unpleasant preparation, involve substantial expense, or include some level of uncertainty and discomfort. For similar reasons, you may be dreading the transition to ICD-10. The good news is that you now have more time to prepare for ICD-10 because the implementation date has moved to Oct. 1, Learning more about the code set, and seeing how certain categories of codes are easier to use than others, should ease some concerns as you prepare for this transition. Like the patient who chooses to undergo screening, a prepared practice may catch problems early and more easily resolve them. After all, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure even when it comes to ICD-10. Denial for dx cpt bone density. also provide a list of various conditions included within a classification code. Example: A provider received duplicate payments of $64.19 on 2/22/12 and 4/20/12 for

If the initial BMD measurement was medically necessary as defined above, serial measurements of BMD to monitor treatment response may be considered medically necessary when performed no more frequently than 24 months apart and when a change in treatment plan may be made based on BMD results. When the need for serial measurements is anticipated in high risk patients who are likely to require treatment, and for obtaining serial measurements, a central DXA BMD measurement should be obtained, as treatment related changes in BMD are not observed at peripheral sites. 5. A woman who has been determined by the physician or a qualified non physician practitioner treating her to be estrogen-deficient and at clinical risk for osteoporosis, based on her medical history and other findings.

It also changed the definition of BMM by removing coverage for a single-photon absorptiometry (SPA) as it is not considered reasonable and necessary under section 1862 (a)(1) (A) of the Act. Medicare may cover a bone mass measurement for a patient once every 2 years. However, if medically necessary, Medicare may cover a bone mass measurement for a patient more frequently than every 2 years.

11 measuring bone mineral density include:. Z13.8 Encounter for screening for other specified diseases and disorders. Precise calibration of the equipment is required for accuracy and to reduce variation of test results and risk of misclassification of the degree of bone density. Lack of standardization in bone mineral measurement remains an issue, and tests are best done on the same suitably precise instrument to insure accuracy. It is important to use results obtained with the same scanner when comparing a patient to a control population, as systematic differences among scanners have been found. To ensure reliability of bone mass measurements, the densitometry technologist must have proper training in performing this procedure. Malpositioning of a patient or analyzing a scan incorrectly can lead to great errors in bone mineral density studies. Z codes represent reasons for encounters. A corresponding procedure code must accompany a Z code if a procedure is performed. Categories Z00-Z99 are provided for occasions when circumstances other than a disease, injury or external cause classifiable to categories A00 -Y89 are recorded as 'diagnoses' or 'problems'.

(b) When some circumstance or problem is present which influences the person's health status but is not in itself a current illness or injury. In addition to gender and estrogen-deficiency, pertinent factors acceptable as documentation for the clinical risk include, but are not limited to: age, family history and personal history of fractures as an adult, race, bone structure and body weight, premature menopause, lifestyle, medications, chronic diseases, and other genetic and environmental factors. Symptoms and findings of osteoporosis include, but are not limited to: back pain, loss of height, curving spine, and chest x-ray showing osteopenia.

12 they are not considered reasonable and necessary under section 1862(a)(1)(A) of the Act:. Nonspecific abnormal findings disclosed at the time of these examinations are classified to categories R70 - R94. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is considered the gold standard because it is the most extensively validated test against fracture outcomes. In general, a central DXA BMD measurement should be strongly considered for initial screening purposes due to its reproducibility and ability to simultaneously establish the diagnosis of osteoporosis and provide a baseline if one is needed. This approach is endorsed by the National Osteoporosis Foundation's Clinician's Guide to Prevention and Treatment of Osteoporosis as well as the Michigan Quality Improvement Consortium Guideline: Management and Prevention of Osteoporosis.

Bone density can be measured at the wrist, spine, hip or calcaneus. The medical literature is divided on the accuracy of predicting osteoporosis of the spine or hip by measuring peripheral sites (wrist, calcaneus).
