ICD-10 Code Structure 21 Chapters Alpha-numeric codes; not case-sensitive Codes begin with Alpha letter, A-Z, excluding U Common errors I verses 1 O verses 0 X Placeholder 3 to 7 characters Decimal following 3 rd character

ICD-10 Code Structure Placeholder X Used for future expansion of a code Fills in empty characters when a 6 th and/or 7 th character apply The placeholder may be used in different scenarios but should never serve as the final character. Example: W19.XXXA Unspecified fall, Initial Encounter

ICD-10 Code Structure 7 th Character Provides specified information regarding the clinical visit Is required for certain categories and must be reported in the seventh position May be alpha or numeric Has different meanings depending on the coding category

ICD-10 Code Structure Laterality Some ICD-10-CM codes indicate laterality, specifying whether the condition occurs on the left, right or is bilateral. If no bilateral code is provided and the condition is bilateral, assign separate codes for both the left and right side. If the side is not identified in the medical record, assign the code for the unspecified side. OGCR section 1.B.13

ICD-10 Code Structure Other Codes Codes titled other or other specified are for use when the information in the medical record provides detail for which a specific code does not exist. Unspecified Codes Codes titled unspecified are for use when the information in the medical record is insufficient to assign a more specific code. OGCR section 1.A.9.a.b

ICD-10 Structure Excludes Notes Excludes1 A type 1 Excludes note is a pure excludes note It means NOT CODED HERE The code excluded should never be used at the same time When two conditions cannot occur together Excludes2 Represents Not included here The condition excluded is not part of the condition represented by the code It is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together, when appropriate OGCR section 1.A.12.a.b

ICD-10 Code Structure Code First and Use Additional Code ICD-10 has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the codes. OGCR section 1.A.13 The - indicates there are additional reporting options
