THE PROBLEM WITH ICD10 AFTER 10/1/2015

THE PROBLEM WITH ICD10 AFTER 10/1/2015

Our staff working with clients keeps finding ICD10 diagnoses improperly coded as UNSPECIFIED codes or incorrectly coded in the course of mapping from ICD9, a situation that takes place when the coder or the electronic medical system (EMR) used in the practice fails to follow the required steps defined in the ICD10 coding guidelines thus generating insufficient codes that require higher specificity. That is going to cost you a lot of money. 

CMS will enforce penalties and reductions in payments to healthcare providers that fail to code ICD10 diagnosis to the maximum level of specificity as we move into the Pay-for-Performance (P4P) alternative. 

Remember the audits from Medicare and Medicaid recovering millions of dollars from overpayments caused by UPCODING in the last 25 years? 

We remember our involvement representing physicians before Medicare and Medicaid in more than 500 audits.  We learned that over 95% of the audits took place due to ignorance from providers not knowing how to code the pertinent levels of service.
