Under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), ICD-10-CM is the standard transaction code set for diagnostic purposes . It’s used to keep track of health-care statistics, such as illness burden, quality outcomes, death rates, and billing. HIPAA also covers the ICD-10-CM guidelines, which implies that anyone who uses the code set, including payers, cannot make up their own regulations about “how” to use it. While the ICD-10-CM code set was not established for payment, it does have an impact. As a result, it’s essential to educate yourself and your staff about proper coding, which should lead to proper payment.
The switch from ICD-9-CM to ICD-10-CM was also prompted by the fact that the latter’s coding capacity was running out , as most of the code categories were entirely full. Furthermore, ICD-9-CM codes lacked the specificity and information that ICD-10-CM codes supplied.
The timed examination can only be taken twice per registration, however the self-evaluation exam allows for an infinite number of attempts. Here are five techniques for getting an 80 percent passing score on the first attempt:
Switch techniques by working at your own pace with AAPC’s online training option if you don’t like the concept of a timed exam.
The Alphabetical Index of diagnostic terms (plus their corresponding ICD-10 codes) lists thousands of “main terms” alphabetically. Under each of those main terms, there is often a sublist of more-detailed terms—for instance, “Cataract” has a sublist of 84 terms. However, the Alphabetical Index doesn’t include coding instructions, which are in the Tabular List.
1 implementation of ICD-10, EyeNet is providing an overview of the five-step process for finding ICD-10 codes (see below), along with a series of subspecialty-specific Savvy Coders, starting next month with cataract.
Example. If the diagnosis is primary open-angle glaucoma, severe stage, in the right eye, submit H40.11X3. While some glaucoma codes require you to indicate laterality (using the sixth character), that’s not the case with H40.11. But you are required to indicate staging, which is done with the seventh character, so you need to use X as a placeholder.
If you looked only at the Alphabetical Index, you wouldn’t know that some glaucoma diagnosis codes require a sixth character to represent laterality—1 for the right eye, 2 for the left eye, and 3 for both eyes—or a seventh character to represent staging (see “ Step 5 ”). Step 3: Read the code’s instructions.
Example. The ICD-10 code H40.2232 represents bilateral chronic angle-closure glaucoma, moderate stage. Breaking that down, H40.22 represents chronic angle-closure glaucoma, the 3 in the sixth position indicates that it is bilateral, and the 2 in the seventh position represents that it is moderate stage.
Example. A patient presents with a complaint of pain in the right eye for two hours. A corneal abrasion is diagnosed. The code is S05.01 Injury of conjunctiva and corneal abrasion without foreign body, right eye. That code’s entry in the Tabular List instructs you to add a seventh character—A, D, or S. Since S05.01 is only five characters long, use X as a placeholder in the sixth position. In the seventh position, add A to indicate an initial encounter—S05.01XA. When the patient is seen in follow-up, use code S05.01XD. If the patient develops a recurrent erosion as a result of the abrasion, use code S05.01XS.
