1 Where Are You on the ICD-10-CM Radar Screen? Presented to the Indiana Medical Group Management Association

2 ICD-10 Final Rule On January 16, 2009, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released the final rule mandating that everyone covered by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) implement ICD-10 for medical coding.

3 Deadline for ICD-10 Allows Health Care Industry Ample Time to Prepare For Change On July 31st, 2014, The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued a rule finalizing October 1, 2015 as the new compliance date. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has issued a rule finalizing Oct. 1, 2015 as the new compliance date for health care providers, health plans, and health care clearinghouses to transition to ICD-10. This new deadline gives providers, insurance companies, and others in the health care industry time to ramp up their operations to ensure their systems and business processes are ready to go on Oct. 1, 2015.

4 Benefits of ICD-10-CM Up-to-date classification systems will provide much better data for: Measuring the quality, safety, and efficacy of care Designing payment systems and processing claims for reimbursement Conducting research, epidemiological studies, and clinical trials

5 Setting health policy Operational and strategic planning and designing healthcare delivery systems Monitoring resource utilization

6 Improving clinical, financial, and administrative performance Preventing and detecting healthcare fraud and abuse Tracking public health and risks Decreases fraud, waste, and abuse

7 Only a very small percentage of the codes will be used by most providers. Dispelling Myths Too Many Codes 34,250 (50%) of all ICD-10-CM codes are related to the musculoskeletal system 17,045 (25%) of all ICD-10-CM codes are related to fractures ~25,000(36%) of all ICD-10-CM codes to distinguish right vs. left

8 Testing Special acknowledgement testing weeks give submitters access to real-time help desk support and allows CMS to analyze testing data. Registration is not required. Mark your calendar and watch your Part B bulletins for information: March 2 through 6, 2015 June 1 through 5, 2015

9 This is different from end-to-end testing. Watch the CMS website asking for volunteers to perform end-to-end testing.

22 Asthma Severity (Mild) intermittent asthma Mild persistent asthma Frequency of Daytime Symptoms Symptoms less than twice weekly and the patient is otherwise asymptomatic. Pulmonary function studies are normal except during periods of disease and exacerbations are brief and easily treated. Symptoms more than twice a week but less than daily. The symptoms are severe enough to interfere with daily activities and may interrupt sleep up to twice a month. Pulmonary function studies are normal or show mild airflow obstruction which is reversible with the inhalation of a bronchodilator. Moderate persistent asthma Symptoms occur daily, and the disease severity warrants regular use of medications for control. Patients are constantly aware of their disease, require medications on a daily basis, have their sleep interrupted at least weekly, and have to accommodate their life style to the disease. Pulmonary function is moderately abnormal, with the FEV1 being 60-80% of the predicted value. Severe persistent asthma Continuous symptoms despite the correct use of medications. The severity of the disease limits physical activities and is associated with frequent exacerbations and sleep interruption. Treatment requires combinations of medications on a constant basis. Pulmonary function tests are severely affected with the FEV1 being <60% of predicted.
