Brief Overview of ICD-10-CM/PCS
• ICD-10 is composed of two parts:
– ICD-10-CM (clinical modification)
– ICD-10-PCS (procedural coding system)
Copyright c 2015
Confidential and Proprietary Information
The Difference Between ICD-10-CM/PCS
• ICD-10-CM – Replaces ICD-9-CM Vol. 1 & 2 Codes
– ICD-10-CM will be used to identify diagnosis codes in all health
care settings
• ICD-10-PCS – Replaces ICD-9 Vol. 3 Procedure Codes (facility use
only)
ICD-10PCS will be used by facilities to report procedures in the
hospital inpatient setting
• Physicians and Other Healthcare Professionals will continue to use
CPT and HCPCS (Level II) codes to report office and other
procedures and services
• Hospital Outpatient Departments/OPSurgery and Ambulatory
Surgery Centers will also continue to use CPT and HCPCS (Level II)
codes for reporting outpatient procedures and ancillary services
Copyright c 2015

ICD-10-PCS
• Under ICD-10, new and cutting-edge technology
that have been problematic to code in ICD-9 will
be assigned based on surgeon’s documentation in
the operative note

Compliance Date
• October 1, 2015
– Date of service on or after 10/01/2015 for office and
other outpatient services (including Hospital
Observation)
• ED and Observation services prior to 10/1 with overlap on
or after 10/1 will use ICD9 codes for reporting
– Discharge date on or after 10/01/2015 for hospital
inpatient discharges
– Claims for services prior to 10/1/2015 will continue to
flow through systems utilizing ICD-9-CM diagnosis and
ICD-9-CM Vol. 3 procedure codes (for facilities) for a
period of time

Overview of ICD-10-CM
• The transition to ICD-10 affects all HIPAA-covered
entities – hospitals, physicians, allied health
professionals, home health, skilled nursing, etc.;
as well as payers, business associates – billing
companies, vendors, clearinghouses
• Non-covered entities (e.g. automobile insurance
and worker’s compensation programs are not
required to transition to ICD-10), although it is
recommended

ICD-10-CM Changes
• There are three main categories of changes in
ICD-10-CM
- Definition Changes
- Differences in Terminology
- Increased Documentation Specificity
• ICD-10 doesn’t affect coding only; it involves
physician reporting, billing, information
technology, and revenue management

Comparison
10
ICD-10-CM
• Although there are approximately 70,000 codes in
ICD-10, specialists will use only a small subset of
those codes
• You will be surprised at how much of this work you
are already doing
• Over 1/3 of the expansion codes are due to laterality
(physicians are already documenting right, left,
bilateral)
– If bilateral and there is no specific code for bilateral, you
code both right and left sides
11
Overview of ICD-10-CM
• ICD-9 codes will no longer be maintained once
ICD-10 is implemented
• A claim cannot contain both ICD-9-CM and
ICD-10-CM (CMS Transmittal 950, effective
10/1/2013)
12
Risk Mitigation
• Denials can run high for “not medically
necessary reasons”
• In the beginning there is risk of payers not
fully mapping procedures with new allowed
diagnosis reasons
– Be prepared for short term reduced revenues
13
HOT OFF THE PRESS…
Source: Modern Healthcare, 9/4/2015
•
Four State Medicaid Programs will NOT Transition to ICD-10 by 10/1
•
CMS will allow four states - California, Louisiana, Maryland and Montana - to use a
"crosswalk technique" to continue using the older code sets for Medicaid fee-forservice programs because their claims processing systems in these four states are
unable to use the new ICD-10 codes.
•
Under the crosswalk technique, the Medicaid programs will convert claims using
the ICD10 system into ICD-9 codes to calculate payments
•
Some provider groups and healthIT experts say the use of such a technique could
result in payment delays and other issues.
•
It was not stated whether this applies to straight Medicaid and/or the Medicaid
Bayou Plans.
Stay tuned for additional information to be released
•
14
Administrative Considerations
• Reimbursement
• Potential effect of delays, initial decrease in coder
productivity
• (Industry estimates 20-30% reduction in coder
productivity due to additional specificity; physician
queries; loss of memorized codes; learning curve.)
• Decrease in physician/provider productivity due to
additional specificity needed in charting; additional
specificity needed for orders; additional specificity for
authorizations; answering queries; increased selection
on charge tickets and/or order sets

Reporting Differences, Trending and
Analytic Modifications
• Converting from ICD9 to ICD10 more than triples the
number of available codes
• Looking at historical data becomes problematic
unless you can identify and capture needed
information from the two coding systems
• Simple forward mapping will not be sufficient for
most providers to make a successful transition

18
ICD-10-CM
• You will need to map your most frequently
used ICD-9-CM codes to ICD-10-CM
• Due to the number of code choices with some
diagnoses, there may be some challenges with
charge ticket/superbill options and EHR
template “drop-downs”

• Individual ICD-9 codes that map to several ICD-10 code
alternatives;
• Individual ICD-9 codes that map to a set of two of more ICD10 codes;
• Two or more ICD-9 codes that map to individual ICD-10 codes;
• ICD-9 codes with no representation in ICD-10;
• ICD-9 codes with an exact match in ICD-10; and
• Individual ICD-9 codes that map to codes with similar but not
identical meanings in ICD-10

23
Documentation Awareness
• Physicians are becoming more
aware of the value of clinical
data and the relationships
between their professional
profiles and the diagnosis
(ICD-9/ICD-10) and procedure
codes (CPT) assigned
• If the clinical documentation
and the codes do not
accurately and specifically
represent the work you do, it
could poorly reflect through
reporting and impact your
future reimbursement

ICD-10 Will Have a Direct Impact on
Physicians Through…..
• Physician quality profiles (PQRS, VBPM, P4P)
– mortality and morbidity reporting
– Not every insurer is profiling physicians yet, but
there are several other entities that do (e.g.
Health Grades – licensing backgrounds and
disciplinary information)
– Payers that profile use their own home-grown
grading systems that use claims data to determine
both “quality” and “efficiency”
Copyright © 2015
Confidential and Proprietary Information
Provider Profiling
• Not all care or every specialty can be measured
• Most programs focus on specific types of physicians
and services
• Most common specialties profiled:
Cardiology
Pediatrics
Pulmonary
Allergy
OB/GYN
Rheumatology
Endocrinology
Nephrology
Infectious Disease
Family medicine
Neurology
Internal Medicine
Orthopedics
Copyright © 2015
Confidential and Proprietary Information
Provider Profiling
• Most common diagnoses monitored:
– All of the major heart, lung and organ diseases
– The most prevalent viruses and inflammation
– Screening for cancers and depression
– Immunization compliance rates
Copyright c 2015
Confidential and Proprietary Information
Provider Profiling
• Provider Efficiency
- Payers compare a physician’s data to their
local market benchmarks for cost of
resources used in delivering healthcare
- ICD-10 codes will capture the management
of chronically ill patients
Copyright © 2015
Confidential and Proprietary Information
Manage Your Profile
• Payers will provide you with feedback on your
scores in the quality and efficiency areas
profiled
• Reports include details on the patients used
for scoring
• Validate or refute the findings, as these scores
may have an impact on your bottom line in
2017 with governmental and third party
payers
Copyright © 2015

Do You Code Your Own Services?
• If you do not code your services, then training
will be limited to ICD-10 concepts of the
specialty and documentation changes
• If you do your own coding, then you will need
full training on the code set and coding
guidelines
– Be sure to read the Chapter Specific Guidelines
located in front of the ICD-10CM coding manual
Copyright © 2015
Confidential and Proprietary Information
Unspecified Code Assignment
• Surveys indicate that as much as 50% of
current physician documentation cannot be
coded to appropriate level of specificity with
ICD-10 resulting in unspecified code use
• Many unspecified codes in ICD-10-CM include
the note: *Codes with a greater degree of
specificity should be considered first
Copyright © 2015
Confidential and Proprietary Information
Unspecified Codes
• Sometimes the use of unspecified codes makes
sense
– Early in the course of evaluation
– Secondary diagnoses not directly being treated by that provider
but impacts that encounter
– Generalist vs specialist
• Area of expertise – the diagnosis may not be in the providers scope of
expertise and will need to get the opinion of a specialist
• Payers are discouraging the use of unspecified
codes
– When providers review their severity and risk scores it may
impact their reimbursement because it won’t have the specificity
in their codes that are needed to justify higher levels and better
reimbursement
32
Underdosing (Of Medication Regimen)
(Z91.12-, Z91.13-)
• New concept term in ICD-10 (patient is taking less of
a medication than prescribed)
• Today’s terminology – Non-compliance of
medication
Documentation Awareness
When documenting Underdosing of medication regimen include:
•
•
•
•
Intentional
Unintentional
Non-compliance
Reason – financial hardship; age related debility
• The medical condition is sequenced first, with the underdosing listed as a
secondary diagnosis
33
Underdosing or Failure in Dosage During
Medical or Surgical Care
(Y63.6, Y63.8 - Y63.9)
• Adverse event
• Y63- describes the circumstance causing an
injury, not the nature of the injury
• It should not be used as a principal diagnosis
(always list as secondary)
Copyright c 2015
Confidential and Proprietary Information
Initial vs. Subsequent Encounters
• One of the biggest misconceptions inherent to
ICD-10 is the term “subsequent” encounter
• It does not mean “second” time seeing patient
• The designation subsequent is meant to
describe the patient has received active
treatment (initial) and the physician is now
providing routine care (subsequent)
Copyright © 2015 MEDKODER LLC

35
Physician vs. Facility Requirements
• Although physicians will continue to use CPT
codes to report their procedures and services,
you will need to remain cognizant of the
documentation specificity that hospitals will
need to report procedures/services with ICD10-PCS for inpatients
Copyright c 2015
Confidential and Proprietary Information
General Documentation Tips
Incorporating these aspects into your documentation will result
in an accurate picture in the patient’s severity of illness and risk
of mortality
• Use adjectives (acute, chronic, acute-on-chronic, mild,
moderate, severe, persistent)
• Indicate cause and effect (due to or secondary to)
• Be specific about the aspects of the disease (use current
terminology)
• Specify the anatomical site
• Use exact dates
Copyright c 2015
Confidential and Proprietary Information
Clear Clinical Documentation
Avoid using “history of” when documenting a current,
chronic condition; in coding “history of” means the
patient no longer has the condition

Ordering Diagnostic/Therapeutic
Services
• Governmental and third party payers require the
performing provider (hospital ancillary
departments, outpatient freestanding centers,
independent labs, etc.) to provide ICD9/10 codes
for outpatient diagnostic and/or therapeutic
testing/services that they perform and submit for
payment on behalf of your patients
• These providers rely on you, the ordering
physician, to submit the appropriate diagnosis
code at the time of ordering to establish medical
necessity for the test ordered

CMS FAQ 7579 – Refills
(Louisiana Medicaid)
• If a payer/pharmacy requires a diagnosis code for a
prescription and the prescriber reports an ICD-9 diagnosis
code because it is prescribed prior to the October 1, 2015
ICD-10 implementation date, what diagnosis code must be
reported if that same prescription is filled and processed
after the October 1, 2015 ICD-10 implementation date?
• When conducting a standard transaction, medical data code
sets (ICD-9 and ICD-10) that are valid at the time that the
service is provided (prescription fill date) must be used (45
CFR 162.1000).For example: A prescription, reporting an ICD9 diagnosis code, is dated 09/20/2015. The prescription is
filled and processed by the pharmacy on 10/02/2015.

• The Date of Service reported by the pharmacy
on the claim is 10/02/2015 (even though the
prescription was written 09/20/2015).
• The claim, when submitted on 10/02/2015, is
required to report an ICD-10 diagnosis code. A

Obstetrical Enhancements
• Some of the obstetrical coding enhancements
include:
– 1. Elimination of episodes of care for obstetric
codes
– 2. Changes in time frames:
a. Abortion vs. Fetal death (20 weeks)
b. Early vs. Late pregnancy (20 weeks)
Copyright c 2015

Obstetrical Enhancements
– 3. Code extensions to denote the specific fetus in multiple
gestation pregnancies
– 4. One other notable enhancement is that ICD-10-CM
allows the trimester of pregnancy to be designated. Here is
an example of the difference:
ICD-9-CM
ICD-10-CM
649.53 Spotting complicating pregnancy,
antepartum
O26.851 Spotting complicating pregnancy,
first trimester
O26.852 Spotting complicating pregnancy,
second trimester
O26.853 Spotting complicating pregnancy,
third trimester
O26.859 Spotting complicating pregnancy,
unspecified trimester
Gestational Week Codes
• Gestational week codes would be reported in
addition to codes for complications of
pregnancy
• Example:
Z3A.00
Weeks of gestation of pregnancy not specified
Z3A.01
Less than 8 weeks gestation of pregnancy
Z3A.08
8 weeks gestation of pregnancy
Z3A.09
9 weeks gestation of pregnancy

Screening Codes
• Documentation for screenings must include any
abnormal finding which would be listed
secondary to the screening codes
• Screening codes in ICD-10 can be broken down by
the condition, procedure, or anatomic location
depending on the type of screening
– Example
• Prenatal screening of mother Z36
• Congenital anomaly screening Z13.89
• Chromosomal abnormalities (nonprocreative) Z13.79

– Obstetric cases require codes from
chapter 11, codes in the range 630679, Complications of Pregnancy,
Childbirth, and the Puerperium
– Chapter 11 codes have sequencing
priority over codes from other
chapters
– Additional codes from other chapters
may be used in conjunction with

conditions
– Should the provider document that
the pregnancy is incidental to the
encounter, then code V22.2 should
be used in place of any chapter 11
codes
– It is the provider’s responsibility to
state that the condition being treated
is not affecting the pregnancy

General Rules for OB Case
• ICD-9-CM Fifth Digits
– Categories 640-649, 651-676 have
required fifth-digits, which indicate
whether the encounter is
antepartum, postpartum and
whether a delivery has also
occurred or puerperal
• ICD-10-CM Final character for
trimester
– The majority of codes in Chapter
15 have a final character indicating
the trimester of pregnancy
– The timeframes for the trimesters
are indicated at the beginning of
the chapter
– If trimester is not a component of a
code it is because the condition
always occurs in a specific
trimester, or the concept of
trimester of pregnancy is not
applicable
– Certain codes have characters for
only certain trimesters because the
condition does not occur in all
trimesters, but it may occur in
more than just one

54
Timeframes for Trimesters
• Trimesters are counted from the first day of
the last menstrual period
• They are defined in ICD-10-CM as follows:
– 1st trimester - less than 14 weeks 0 days
– 2nd trimester - 14 weeks 0 days to less than 28
weeks 0 days
– 3rd trimester - 28 weeks 0 days until delivery

General Rules for OB Cases
• ICD-9-CM Fifth-digits,
appropriate for each code
– The fifth-digits, which are
appropriate for each code number,
are listed in brackets under each
code
– The fifth-digits on each code
should all be consistent with each
other That is, should a delivery
occur all of the fifth-digits should
indicate the delivery
• ICD-10-CM
• Assignment of the final character
for trimester should be based on
the provider’s documentation of
the trimester (or number of
weeks) for the current
admission/encounter.
• This applies to the assignment of
trimester for pre-existing
conditions as well as those that
develop during or are due to the
pregnancy
• The provider’s documentation of
the number of weeks may be
used to assign the appropriate
code identifying the trimester

Newborn Documentation
• When coding a birth episode in a newborn record, a
code from category Z38.- (liveborn infant according to
place and type of delivery) is always assigned as the
principal diagnosis.
• Birth takes precedence over other conditions
• What we need to know
–
–
–
–
How many babies
Where did the baby arrive
How was the baby delivered
Coders can’t make assumptions about each infant in a
multiple birth situation. Documentation has to be specific
on each
Copyright © 2015 MEDKODER LLC
Confidential and Proprietary Information
108
Newborn Documentation
• Documentation should include all clinically
significant conditions noted on a routine
newborn examination
• A condition is clinically significant if it requires
any of the following
–
–
–
–
–
–
Clinical evaluation
Therapeutic treatment
Diagnostic procedures
Extended length of hospital stay
Increased nursing care and/or monitoring
Has implications for future health care needs

Observation for Suspected Condition
• There are many instances where a newborn is
observed for a suspected condition but after study the
condition is ruled out
• P00-P04, has codes for use for newborns suspected of
having an abnormality resulting from exposure from
the mother or the birth process but without signs or
symptoms, and, after examination and observation, is
found not to exist.
– Example:
• P04.41 Newborn (suspected to be) affected by maternal use of
cocaine, or
• P00.0 Newborn (suspected to be) affected by maternal
hypertensive disorders

Prematurity & Fetal Growth
Retardation
• Prematurity and Fetal Growth Retardation (P05-P08) describe newborn
gestational age and weight disorders.
• Providers utilize different criteria in determining prematurity. A code for
prematurity should not be assigned unless it is documented.
• Assignment of codes in categories P05, Disorders of newborn related to
slow fetal growth and fetal malnutrition, and P07, Disorders of newborn
related to short gestation and low birth weight, not elsewhere classified,
should be based on the recorded birth weight and estimated gestational
age.
• Codes from category P05 should not be assigned with codes from category
P07. When both birth weight and gestational age are available, two codes
from category P07 should be assigned, with the code for birth weight
sequenced before the code for gestational age.
– Example:
• P05.12 (Newborn small for gestational age, 500-749 grams)
• P07.22 (Extreme immaturity of newborn, 24-26 completed weeks).

• Other specified diabetes (E13) – secondary diabetes mellitus –
controlled/not specified; uncontrolled
For Type 2 diabetes mellitus and secondary diabetes mellitus, any long-term
or current use of insulin is reported as an additional code.
You may report more than one diabetes code for patients with multiple
complications or when multiple body systems are affected as a result of the
diabetes.
Secondary diabetes is defined as a diabetic condition with an underlying
cause other than genetics or environmental conditions (includes due to
drugs, chemicals, medical conditions, surgical procedures or trauma)

the obstetrical laceration in the delivery note
in order for the coder to properly assign the
code (e.g. perineal, urethral, etc.)

Obstetrical Perineal Laceration
• Perineal repair after either an episiotomy or spontaneous
obstetric laceration is one of the more common procedures
performed following a vaginal delivery
• Perineal lacerations are classified according to their depth
or degree of the laceration, with each higher degree
involving a deeper laceration
• There are four different degrees of perineal lacerations
with the ICD-10-PCS code(s) assigned for each of these
different degrees being dependent upon the body part(s)
involved in the laceration
• The root operation to repair all degrees of perineal
lacerations is Repair.
