Adjust organizational-specific coding guidelines to accommodate unique issues and idiosyncrasies —particularly those for which unintended code logic (such as that occasionally seen with arterial lines) may be impacting DRG assignment drastically. While remaining compliant with official coding guidelines, coders and organizations alike certainly will benefit from specific coding policies for each anomaly.
Arterial line insertion is another common procedure performed in various critical care settings, often to monitor arterial blood pressure for acutely ill patients. In ICD-9, the coding of this ancillary procedure had no influence on DRG assignment for any conceivable scenario.
Paracentesis is a procedure frequently performed to remove fluid that has accumulated in the abdominal cavity. For example, a patient presenting with ascites may require this procedure to both alleviate abdominal distention and potentially diagnose the underlying cause.
With certain procedure codes, if you shift a single character from one value to another, it takes the DRG on a “wild ride” – resulting in a huge payment differential. This speaks to the delicate nature of ICD-10-PCS, wherein thousands of dollars of payment can hinge upon a single character in a single code. Following are two examples based on recent feedback from the field.
Any internal coding guidelines should clarify unusual circumstances, support consistency, and yield accurate reimbursement. Seek clarification and guidance to address the problem through a reliable body of resources, shared stories, revised policies and procedures, and additional training.
Firstly, we’re seeing some unpredicted and significant shifts in DRG assignment based on very small differences within procedure codes. These codes are seven characters in length, and each character represents an aspect of the procedure.
In the aforementioned example, coding paracentesis as “therapeutic” has no effect on DRG assignment. On the other hand, coding it as “diagnostic” shifts the DRG to a surgical DRG, nearly doubling the relative weight and payment. Assigning codes for both a “therapeutic” and “diagnostic” paracentesis has the same net effect.
