Implementation Background 4
Effective Date ICD-10 goes into effect October 1, 2015. Use of ICD-10 in the United States was formally proposed in August 2008 and finalized in January 2009. Implementation of ICD-10 was initially scheduled for October 2013 and has been postponed twice since then. ICD-10 is effective by date of discharge, not by date of admission. for diagnosis codes and ICD-10-PCS for procedure codes go into effect together on the same date. 5
Who Uses What Physicians, hospitals and all other providers must use ICD-10 diagnosis codes. Hospitals must also use ICD-10-PCS procedure codes for inpatient cases. Implementation of ICD-10 does not affect use of CPT. Provider Setting Diagnoses Procedures Physicians Facility/Office CPT Hospitals Outpatient CPT ASCs Outpatient CPT Hospitals Inpatient ICD-10-PCS 6
Diagnosis Codes 7
Need an Codebook? diagnosis codes are administered by the Centers for Disease Control. Physician offices can download a copy of the entire codebook from the CDC website: http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/icd/icd10cm.htm#icd2105 This version is official, complete, current, and free. Offices will need at least the Tabular and the Index. The Tabular is the running list of diagnosis codes with their descriptions and instructions for use. The codes are updated once a year on October 1. 8
Diagnosis Code Structure Codes are organized by chapter, mostly by body system. The chapters are virtually identical to those in. Codes are alpha-numeric and can be 3 to 7 digits long. Category Decimal Details Extension T 8 2 alpha number R 5 5 1 2 0 A alpha or number T82.120A Displacement of cardiac electrode, initial encounter R55 Syncope I 5 0 2 3 I50.23 Acute on chronic systolic heart failure 9
Volume of Diagnosis Codes has far more diagnosis codes than and provides a greater level of specificity. Most physicians will use a small subset of the total codes. Physicians do not use external cause codes. Many of the additional codes are due to laterality. 14,567 codes 69,823 codes Specialty societies have been very active in requesting new diagnosis codes with additional clinical detail. There are still unspecified codes. Much of the additional specificity captured by diagnosis codes is already documented by physicians. 10
Greater Specificity Or Less Some conditions that use the same code in are differentiated in and have separate codes. Example: Non-ischemic cardiomyopathy 425.4 Other primary cardiomyopathies I42.0 Dilated cardiomyopathy (congestive) I42.5 Other restrictive cardiomyopathy (constrictive cardiomyopathy) I42.8 Other cardiomyopathies I42.9 Cardiomyopathy, unspecified For some conditions though, it s the opposite. Example: Bifascicular blocks 426.51 Right bundle branch block and left posterior fascicular block 426.52 Right bundle branch block and left anterior fascicular block 426.53 Bilateral bundle branch block, other I45.2 Bifascicular block 11
ICD-10 Guidelines Guidelines for use of are offered by multiple sources, but two sources are mandatory: Instructions within the ICD-10 codebook itself The ICD-10 Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting Use of these guidelines is mandated under HIPAA. Physicians only need to use the diagnosis guidelines (there s a separate set of official guidelines for procedures) The guidelines can be found at: http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/icd/icd10cm.htm#icd2105 Physicians will be most interested in Section IV: Diagnostic Coding 12
13 Diagnosis Code Crosswalks
14 General Equivalence Mappings CDC posts General Equivalence Mappings (GEMs) on its website. These are a useful tool for going back-and-forth between codes and ICD-10 codes. The first GEM goes forward from ICD-9 to ICD-10. The second GEM goes backward from ICD-10 to ICD-9. Both GEMs are updated once a year. The GEMs can be found at: http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/icd/icd10cm.htm#icd2105 Although GEMs are useful, CDC and CMS strongly recommend using the codebook directly, as studies have consistently indicated that this is most accurate.

ICD-10-PCS Procedure Codes 31
ICD-10-PCS Format ICD-10-PCS procedure codes are administered by CMS. Codes are alpha-numeric and are always 7 digits long. There are virtually no unspecified or default codes. ICD-10-PCS uses standardized definitions throughout. Each position in an ICD-10-PCS procedure code represents a distinct element. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 section root operation approach qualifier body system body part device 32
Structure of ICD-10-PCS Codes In ICD-10-PCS, codes are not assigned per se. They are constructed, character by character. Rather than a Tabular list of codes, ICD-10-PCS displays tables from which values for each position are selected. Defibrillator generator: Evera 0JH608Z Insertion of defibrillator generator, into chest subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach CRT-D generator: Viva 0JH609Z Insertion of cardiac resynchronization defibrillator pulse generator into chest subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach 33
ICD-10-PCS Terminology Pulmonary vein isolation (ie. for atrial fibrillation) 02583ZZ Destruction of conduction mechanism, percutaneous approach It is the coder s responsibility to determine what the documentation in the medical record equates to in the PCS definitions. The physician is not expected to use the terms used in PCS code descriptions No need to document Destruction, keep documenting PVI or ablation No need to document Percutaneous Endoscopic, thoracoscopic is fine 34
Volume of Procedure Codes ICD-10-PCS has far more procedure codes than and provides much greater specificity. Full system CRT-D ICD-10-PCS 1 code 4 codes 3,882 codes ICD-10-PCS 71,962 codes CRT-D generator with transvenous RA, RV, LV leads 0JH609Z Insertion of CRT-D generator into chest subcutaneous tissue, open approach 02H63KZ Insertion of defibrillator lead into right atrium, percutaneous approach 02HK3KZ Insertion of defibrillator lead into right ventricle, percutaneous approach 02H43KZ Insertion of defibrillator lead into coronary vein, percutaneous approach 35
36 Implementation Issues
37 Documentation Practices ICD-10 raises the bar on specificity in documentation for diagnoses. Documentation for Diagnosis Specificity Culprit lesion or site of acute myocardial infarction Type of cardiomyopathy: ischemic/non-ischemic, congestive, constrictive Acuity and type of heart failure: acute/chronic, systolic/diastolic Type of atrial fibrillation: paroxysmal, persistent, chronic Type of atrial flutter: type I, type II Nature of bradycardia: SSS, tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome Nature of tachycardia: SVT, VT, AVNRT Device complication: true complication or expected end-of-life? Nature of device complication: stenosis, breakdown, premature depletion PAF CHF device failure tachycardia bradycardia STEMI (unspecified) decompensated HF
Documentation Practices ICD-10 also raises the bar on specificity in documentation for procedures. Documentation for Procedure Specificity Conventional or resynchronization pacemaker or defibrillator Exact anatomic location of subcutaneous devices: chest, back, abdominal wall Specific name and model of devices used Other documentation considerations Take note of coder queries requesting additional information and include those details in similar cases going forward. CMS has a useful primer for cardiology documentation: http://www.roadto10.org/action-plan/phase-2-train/primer-cardiology/ 38
Coverage Issues CMS has converted its NCDs and codes are already being displayed on LCDs and on private payers medical policies. Identify the practice s largest payers and check the codes on their on-line medical polices for familiarity as well as omissions. Check practice superbills against payer policies for differences. Alert the payer to possible discrepancies. Be aware that the specificity of may allow payers to now enforce existing coverage rules more stringently. 39
Practice Implementation Checklist 1. Lay out a plan Identify which ICD-9 codes you use heavily Identify the staff that need to be trained in coding and/or documentation Contact vendors to learn their plans, ICD-10 related costs to the practice, and resources available to the practice Contact the specialty society for any resources available to the practice Visit the CMS website for useful tools and materials 2. Get trained Buy or download an ICD-10 diagnosis codebook Arrange and implement ICD-10 coding training for staff Arrange and obtain documentation training for physicians and other clinicians Crosswalk common diagnosis codes to ICD-10 and identify new requirements or differences in essential documentation Sign up for key CMS webinars to increase understanding of the ICD-10 environment 3. Update internal practice tools Convert superbills to ICD-10 Convert other materials to ICD-10, such as authorizations, orders and referrals Identify common code-related causes for current claim denials and identify areas where ICD-10's specificity in documentation and code assignment can address this Obtain payer medical polices with ICD-10 codes for comparison 40
Practice Implementation Checklist 41 4. Work with vendors and payers Arrange and implement ICD-10 software upgrades Train staff on use of new software, either directly or via the vendor Identify EHR documentation templates and assess how they support ICD-10 specificity for claims submission and medical necessity Engage payers on any discrepancies and omissions in ICD-10 coding for medical policies Identify if payers anticipate any changes in processing and payment due to ICD-10 Identify availability of testing with major payers 5. Test the process Perform testing on systems within the practice Perform end-to-end testing with vendors and/or payers Identify and correct issues raised during testing Educate staff on the impact of ICD-10 to payer edits, adjudication, and other claims elements to processes within the practice Repeat! http://coalitionforicd10.org/2015/01/12/you-can-do-it-guide-to-physician-icd-10-conversion/
