ICD-10 Implementation
• October 1, 2015 – Compliance date for
implementation of ICD-10-CM (diagnoses) and
ICD-10-PCS (procedures)
– Ambulatory and physician services provided on or after
10/1/15
– Inpatient discharges occurring on or after 10/1/15
• ICD-10-CM (diagnoses) will be used by all
providers in every health care setting
• ICD-10-PCS (procedures) will be used only for
hospital claims for inpatient hospital procedures
– ICD-10-PCS will not be used on physician claims, even
those for inpatient visits
2
Why ICD-10
Current ICD-9 Code Set is:
– Outdated: 30 years old
– Current code structure limits amount of
new codes that can be created
– Has obsolete groupings of disease
families
– Lacks specificity and detail to support:
• Accurate anatomical positions
• Differentiation of risk & severity
• Key parameters to differentiate disease
manifestations

ICD-10 Changes Everything!
• ICD-10 is a Business Function Change, not just
another code set change.
• ICD-10 Implementation will impact everyone:
– Registration, Nurses, Managers, Lab, Clinical Areas,
Billing, Physicians, and Coding
• How is ICD-10 going to change what you do?

Documentation Tips
10
ICD-10 Provider Impact
• Clinical documentation is the foundation of successful ICD10 Implementation
• Golden Rule of Documentation
– If it isn’t documented by the physician, it didn’t happen
– If it didn’t happen, it can’t be billed
• The purpose in documentation is to tell the story of what
was performed and what is diagnosed accurately and
thoroughly reflecting the condition of the patient
– what services were rendered and what is the severity of illness
• The key word is SPECIFICITY
– Granularity
– Laterality
• Complete and concise documentation allows for accurate
coding and reimbursement
11
Gold Standard Documentation Practices
1.
Always document diagnoses that contributed to the reason for
admission, not just the presenting symptoms
2.
Document diagnoses, rather that descriptors
3.
Indicate acuity/severity of all diagnoses
4.
Link all diseases/diagnoses to their underlying cause
5.
Indicate “suspected”, “possible”, or “likely” when treating a
condition empirically
6.
Use supporting documentation from the dietician / wound care to
accurately document nutritional disorders and pressure ulcers
7.
Clarify diagnoses that are present on admission
8.
Clearly indicate what has been ruled out
9.
Avoid the use of arrows and symbols
10. Clarify the significance of diagnostic tests
12
ICD-10 Provider Impact
The 7 Key Documentation Elements:
1.Acuity – acute versus chronic
2.Site – be as specific as possible
3.Laterality – right, left, bilateral for paired organs and
anatomic sites
4.Etiology – causative disease or contributory drug, chemical,
or non-medicinal substance
5.Manifestations – any other associated conditions
6.External Cause of Injury – circumstances of the injury or
accident and the place of occurrence
7.Signs & Symptoms – clarify if related to a specific condition
or disease process
13
ICD-10 Documentation Tips
Do not use symbols to indicate a disease.
For example “↑lipids” means that a laboratory result
indicates the lipids are elevated
– or “↑BP” means that a blood pressure reading is high
These are not the same as hyperlipidemia or hypertension
14
ICD-10 Documentation Tips
Site and Laterality – right versus left
–bilateral body parts or paired organs
Example – frontal sinusitis
Stage of disease
–Acute, Chronic
–Intermittent, Recurrent, Transient

–Stage I, II, III, IV
Example – stage of pressure ulcer:
– L89.011 Pressure ulcer of right elbow, stage 1
– L89.021 Pressure ulcer of left elbow, stage 1

ICD-10 Documentation Tips
Drug Under-dosing
is a new code in ICD-10-CM.
– It identifies situations in which a patient has taken less of a
medication than prescribed by the physician.
• Intentional versus unintentional
– Documentation requirements include:
• The medical condition
• The patient’s reason for not taking the medication
– example – financial reason
– Z91.120 – Patient’s intentional underdosing of
medication due to financial hardship
25
ICD-10 Documentation Tips
Codes for postoperative complications have been expanded and a
distinction made between intraoperative complications and postprocedural disorders
•The provider must clearly document the relationship between the
condition and the procedure
–
Example:
• D78.01 –Intraoperative hemorrhage and hematoma of spleen
complicating a procedure on the spleen
• D78.21 –Post-procedural hemorrhage and hematoma of spleen following
a procedure on the spleen
26
ICD-10 Documentation Tips
Intra-operative
Post-procedural
Accidental puncture / laceration
Timing:
•Post-procedure
•Late effect
Same or different body system
Classify as:
•An expected post-procedural
condition
•An unexpected post-procedural
condition, related to the
patient’s underlying medical
comorbidities
•An unexpected post-procedural
condition, unrelated to the
procedure
•An unexpected post-procedural
condition related to surgical care
(a complication of care)
