In 2015 the Federal Government in the United States mandated that fee for service providers assign ICD-10-CM codes to professional service claims for reimbursement. The ICD-10-CM codes are diagnosis codes that share with the insurance company on a medical insurance claim the reason why the service or procedure was performed. Insurance companies may also have policies that list payable ICD-10-CM codes for a service or procedure. This will meet the medical necessity for that procedure or service for payment. There are changes every year to the ICD-10-CM manual that need to be applied to claims and will avoid claim denial due to assignment of deleted codes or lack of use of new codes.
Every year there are changes applied to ICD-10-CM codes that become effective on October 1st. Medical practices billing fee for service procedures for providers need to apply these changes for any insurance claim with a date of service beginning on October 1st with no grace period. This session will review the changes for 2022 to allow attendees to apply these changes for the conditions that they report and assign the correct ICD-10-CM codes
