“Quality-of-Care standards.
Why ICD-10?
• ICD-9 classification system out of date (30
years old)
• Many Categories in ICD-9 are full
• Need improved description of diagnoses
and procedures
• Many categories of classification
outdated, do not correspond to current
clinical perspectives of medicine
• The rest of the world using ICD-10

ICD-9-CM to ICD-10: Basic Overview
ICD-9 CM
• 14,000 Diagnoses Codes
• Numeric Codes:
– Max of 5 digits
• 4,000 Procedure Codes
• Numeric Codes:
– Max of 4 digits
ICD-10
Approximately 68,000
Diagnoses Codes
Alphanumeric Codes:
 Always Start with a Letter (Exc.
U) Max of 7 Char.
 87,000 Procedure Codes
(ICD-10-PCS)
Alpha/Numeric Codes:
 Start with a Number or Letter
(Exc. O or I to avoid confusion
with 0/1)

7th Character Extension
Code Extensions
 Chapter 19-Injury, Poisoning, and Certain Other
Consequences of External Causes (S00-T88)
 Most categories have 7th character extensions
required for each applicable code
Include A, D, S, Z
 A- Initial encounter
 D-Subsequent encounter
 S- Sequela
 Z - Aftercare
© aihcd.org 2011
6
Common Character Extensions
Extension A
 Extension “A”, initial encounter is used while the
patient is receiving active treatment for the injury.
Examples of active treatment are: surgical treatment,
emergency department encounter, and evaluation
and treatment by a new physician
Extension D
 Extension “D” subsequent encounter is used for
encounters after the patient has received active
treatment of the injury and is receiving routine care
for the injury during the healing or recovery phase.
Examples of subsequent care are: cast change or
removal, removal of external or internal fixation
device, medication adjustment, other follow up visits
following injury treatment.

7
Common Character Extensions
• Extension “S”, sequela, is for use for
complications or conditions that arise as a
direct result of an injury, such as scar
formation after a burn. The scars are sequela
of the burn. When using extension “S”, it is
necessary to document both the injury that
precipitated the sequela and document the
sequela itself. The “S” extension identifies
the injury responsible for the sequela. The
specific type of sequela (e.g. scar) is
sequenced first, followed by the injury code.

ICD-10 Common Theme
Expansion of Code Sets
 Specificity in clinical documentation
 Specificity in clinical classification
Change in clinical documentation thought process
 “Clinical medicine” versus “CC/MCC Capture”
Completeness and accuracy of clinical documentation
 Severity of illness
 Risk of Morbidity and Mortality
Pay For Performance
 Risk of Admission

Example:Combination Diagnosis
Decubitus Ulcers - appropriate documentation of the exact
location and stage must be present.
Stages of Pressure (Decubitus) Ulcers:
Pressure ulcer, Stage I - Intact skin with non-blanchable redness of a localized area
usually over a bony prominence)
Pressure ulcer, Stage II - Partial thickness loss of dermis presenting as a shallow
open ulcer with a red pink wound bed, without slough. May also present as an intact
or open/ruptured serum-filled blister.
Pressure ulcer, Stage III - Full thickness tissue loss. Subcutaneous fat may be visible
but bone, tendon or muscle are not exposed. Slough may be present but does not
obscure the depth of tissue loss. May include undermining and tunneling.
Pressure ulcer, Stage IV - Full thickness tissue loss with exposed bone, tendon or
muscle. Slough or eschar may be present on some parts of the wound bed. Often
include undermining and tunneling.
Pressure ulcer, Unstageable - Full thickness tissue loss in which the base of the ulcer
is covered by slough (yellow, tan, gray, green or brown) and/or eschar (tan, brown or
black) in the wound bed.

Sad but true……
Documentation of Urosepsis
Has no code within ICD 10……..
UTI with Sepsis, Bladder Infection,
or other Dx must be explicitly
documented.

Strategies for ICD-10 Preparation
• “Build and expand” upon present Clinical
Documentation Initiatives
– Focus on communicating severity-of-illness and
medical necessity
– Familiarity with ICD-10 documentation specificity
requirements
• Clinical specificity
– Time capsule:
• Tomorrow is Today!
• Proceed with Explicitness!

It is so important to remember……
Physicians know how to practice
medicine.
What is needed now is to better
understand how to
DOCUMENT the practice of
medicine!
