Looming shift to more complex ICD-10 coding system

Looming shift to more complex ICD-10 coding system 

Mapping of ICD-9 to ICD-10

It makes sense that it would be somewhat difficult because if the two codes sets were a simple one-to-one map-and-compare there wouldn't be much point in going to a new system.  Whenever you go to a new coding system there are going to be challenges trying to compare data collected under the old system with data collected under the new system.

·         The fact is :      No true crosswalk' exists between ICD-9 and ICD-10

·         ICD-10 Transition Poses Problems for ICD-9 Translation

 The understanding  and  correct use of ICD-10 will avoid:

·         Claims Denial

·         CMS Penalties and/or Claim Reductions

·         Potential CMS Audits ( Medicare and Medicaid)
