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

Covered and Non-Covered Entities Covered Entities Everyone covered by the Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act (HIPPA) Non-Covered Entities Worker s Compensation Auto Insurance Non covered HIPAA entities are exempt but are encouraged to adapt the new code set

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 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: W19.XXXA Unspecified fall, Initial Encounter

ICD-10 Code Structure 7 th Character Provides specified information regarding the clinical visit Is required for certain categories and must be reported in the seventh position May be alpha or numeric Has different meanings depending on the coding category

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 Structure Excludes Notes Excludes1 A type 1 Excludes note is a pure excludes note It means NOT CODED HERE The code excluded should never be used at the same time When two conditions cannot occur together Excludes2 Represents Not included here The condition excluded is not part of the condition represented by the code It is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together, when appropriate OGCR section 1.A.12.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. OGCR section 1.A.13 The - indicates there are additional reporting options

Documentation Tips Note: 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'. This can arise in two main ways: (a) When a person who may or may not be sick encounters the health services for some specific purpose, such as to receive limited care or service for a current condition, to donate an organ or tissue, to receive prophylactic vaccination (immunization), or to discuss a problem which is in itself not a disease or injury. (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.

Monitor Claims On October 01, 2015 we will monitor claims for date of service rules Outpatient claims cannot have crossover dates Outpatient claims will be coded according to date of service Inpatient facility claims will be coded per date of discharge We will monitor claims to resolve any unanticipated problems with the submission process

Claim Denial and Management We will monitor for claim denials We will monitor editing trends for ICD-10 Coding guidelines We will provide feedback to the physicians regarding supporting documentation requirements We will monitor WC or Liability carriers for published rules on use of ICD-9 or ICD-10 code sets

Documentation Start Now All Conditions treated or assessed must be documented in the medical record. In addition to the documentation tips reviewed, below are more areas to document that will ensure proper ICD-10-CM code selection. Site specificity Document notation of qualifiers Exacerbation Manifestations Relapse Status Stages Indicate acute or chronic Indicate underlying or external cause factors Medication Smoke Accidents Mechanical failure Laterality Bilateral Right Left

Documentation Start Now Episode of Care for injuries, poisoning, external causes and other conditions Initial Encounter Use while the patient is receiving active treatment of the condition Active treatment includes surgical treatment, an emergency encounter, and evaluation and treatment by a new physician Subsequent Encounter Used on encounter after the patient has received active treatment of the condition and is receiving routine care for the condition during the healing or recovery phase. Medication adjustments, aftercare, device adjustments, cast change Sequela Used for complications or conditions that arise as a direct result of a condition, late effect
