What is the ICd 10 code for Molina Healthcare?

Providers should always bill the level of specificity appropriate for the services rendered. ICD-10-Clinical Modification (CM) is composed of codes with 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 characters. Codes with three characters are included in ICD-10-CM as the heading of a category of codes that may be further subdivided by the use of the fourth, fifth, sixth or seventh characters to provide greater specificity. Please note a three-character code is to be used only if it is not further subdivided. To be valid, the submitted ICD-10 must be coded to the full number of characters required for service(s) being billed, including the 7th character, if applicable.

When did ICD-10 become effective?

ICD-10 became effective on October 1, 2015. Here at Molina we would like to offer tools to make the transition as smooth as possible. We have created a quick reference guide with a list of the most frequently used diagnosis codes by LTSS providers.
