Provider Education Cathy Munn MPH RHIA CPHQ Sr. Consultant Basic ICD-10 Overview
Agenda • Status of ICD-10 Transition • Who, What, Where, When & Why • Industry Update • Impact of the Change • Providers • Payers • Translation Examples • Arkansas DMS Remediation Update • Next Steps & Resources
Who: The Healthcare Industry • 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 • No impact on Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) and Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) codes • CPT and HCPCS will continue to be used for physician and ambulatory services including physician inpatient hospital visits
What: ICD-10 CM/PCS • ICD-9-CM: International Classification of Diseases, 9th revision, Clinical Modification • US transitioned from ICD-8 to ICD-9 in 1979 • Annual updates • ICD-10: Developed by the World Health Organization as the nomenclature for all countries • ICD-10-CM: International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision, Clinical Modification – US only • ICD-10-PCS: International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision, Procedure Classification System – US only
When: October 1, 20XX • Final Rule Originally Published by HHS on January 16, 2009 requiring the adoption of ICD-10 on October 1, 2013 • Dates of Service (outpatient) After 10/1/2013 • Dates of Discharge (Inpatient) After 10/1/2013 • House Bill 4302 passed on March 31, 2014 delays the implementation of ICD-10 until “no earlier than October 2015” • This is a Federal Mandate
Where: Inpatient vs Outpatient • Systems will have to utilize both ICD-9-CM and ICD-10-CM for overlap e.g. claims backlog, Arkansas Medicaid allows providers 365 days to submit a claim. • Inpatient discharges occurring on or after 10-1-20XX will use ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS codes regardless of date of admission. • Outpatient dates of service occurring on or after 10-1-20XX will use ICD-10-CM codes • There will be period of time when payers will be processing claims in both ICD-9 and ICD-10
Why: Data Benefits of ICD-10 • Better data will be available for: • Measuring the quality, safety and efficacy of care • Designing payment systems and processing claims for reimbursement • Conducting research, epidemiological studies and clinical trials • Setting health policy • Operational and strategic planning and designing healthcare delivery systems • Monitoring resource utilization • Improving clinical, financial and administrative performance • Preventing and detecting healthcare fraud and abuse • Tracking public health and risk
ICD-9 vs. ICD-10 Diagnosis Codes ICD-9 - E codes reference External Causes of Injury & Poisoning ICD-10 - E references the Endocrine System ICD- 9 - V codes reference Health Status & Contact with Health Services ICD-10 - V – Y codes reference External Causes of Morbidity
ICD-9 Procedure vs. ICD-10-PCS The increase in the number of procedure codes is driven by the increased specificity, granularity & laterality contained within the ICD-10 codes. There are also 7th digit designations (A or D) which identify initial or subsequent encounter for care.
