ICD-10 • Coding Specificity • All required digits must be present • Review ICD-10-CM book for required digits • Claims will deny if codes are not complete • Unspecified codes will not be accepted
Systems & Interface Testing • Testing • Provider end-to-end testingis in progress – register at www.wyomingicd10.com • Providers will be able to test specific clinical scenarios to evaluate coder competency and/or evaluate claim processing and denial rates for batches of test files submitted • MUST REGISTER TO TEST – all providers are encouraged to register for testing
Why Test? • Avoid payment and cash flow interruption • Ensure revenue neutrality – specifically hospital and inpatient level of care payments • Ensure billing process readiness and system capability for interfacing and transmitting ICD-10 claims to Wyoming Medicaid: YOUR BILLING SYSTEM MAY NEED UPGRADES OR ADDITIONAL CONFIGURATION EVEN IF YOUR BILLING STAFF IS PREPARED! • At the conclusion of testing, providers will be provided with a summary of testing action, denial/paid rates, edits that posted and payment variances detected. WHY TEST?
Billing after 10/1/2015 will be date of service (DOS) driven: • DOS prior to 10/1/2015 MUST be billed with an ICD-9 diagnosis/surgical procedure code. • DOS 10/1/2015 and after MUST be billed with an ICD-10 diagnosis/surgical procedure code. • Inpatient services that span September 2015 – October 2015 MUST have ICD-10 coding requirements, as the “through” DOS will determine coding requirements.
