The following 72,752 ICD-10-CM codes are billable/specific and can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes as there are no codes with a greater level of specificity under each code. Displaying codes 1-100 of 72,752: A00.0 Cholera due to Vibrio cholerae 01, biovar cholerae. A00.1 Cholera due to Vibrio cholerae 01, biovar eltor. A00.9 Cholera, unspecified.
The ICD-10-CM (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification) is a system used by physicians and other healthcare providers to classify and code all diagnoses, symptoms and procedures recorded in conjunction with hospital care in the United States.
Why ICD-10 codes are important
ICD-10 code R29. 898 for Other symptoms and signs involving the musculoskeletal system is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
Encounter for other specified aftercareICD-10 code Z51. 89 for Encounter for other specified aftercare is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
ICD-10 code F64. 1 for Dual role transvestism is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Mental, Behavioral and Neurodevelopmental disorders .
A combination code is one in which two diagnoses are combined into one code or when a diagnosis is associated with a manifestation or complication. Coders often forget about the new combination codes in ICD-10-CM or simply overlook the rules outlined in the codebook.
ICD-10 code Z51. 11 for Encounter for antineoplastic chemotherapy is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
Use Z codes to code for surgical aftercare. Z47. 89, Encounter for other orthopedic aftercare, and. Z47. 1, Aftercare following joint replacement surgery.
ICD-10 notes that new code F64. 0 covers both “Gender identity disorder in adolescence and adulthood” and “Gender dysphoria in adolescents and adults.” And for revised code F64. 1, ICD-10 instructs you to “Use additional code to identify sex reassignment status (Z87. 890).”
Gender identity disorder, unspecifiedICD-10 code: F64. 9 Gender identity disorder, unspecified.
Code F41. 9 is the diagnosis code used for Anxiety Disorder, Unspecified. It is a category of psychiatric disorders which are characterized by anxious feelings or fear often accompanied by physical symptoms associated with anxiety.
Examples of these combination codes include: I25. 110, Atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery with unstable angina pectoris. E10.
A combination code is a single code used to classify two diagnoses, a diagnosis with an associated secondary process (manifestation) or a diagnosis with an associated complication.
Combination Code. Assign only the combination code when that code fully identifies the diagnostic conditions involved or when the Alphabetic Index so directs. Multiple coding should not be used when the classification provides a combination code that clearly identifies all of the elements documented in the diagnosis.
To review, ICD-9-CM had five characters and was primarily numeric, with a few alphanumeric codes used in certain situations. ICD-10-CM, on the other hand, is seven characters long and entirely alphanumeric. Where each ICD-9-CM code could have one subcategory and one subclassification, an ICD-10-CM code can have one subcategory and two subclassifications, in addition to an alpha extension that provides information as to which visit, or encounter, this is with the patient’s particular illness or injury. ICD-10-CM is obviously a much more extensive, detail-oriented code set, and its new format and organization presented coders with a challenge during the transition period.
In these instances, coders may use the phrase “NoDX” to show that there is no target diagnosis code that matches the source code.
In one-to-many matches, a single code in one set must be crosswalked to a “cluster” of codes in the other set. Clusters are always between two and four codes. There may be multiple target clusters for a single source code.
One of the main rules of crosswalking is: You can code from a specific injury to a general one, but you cannot code from the general to the specific. That is, you can’t infer specific pieces of information from a more general diagnosis code and then apply them to a more specific code in another set.
