Brief History

● ICD-10 was adopted by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1990

● Following the publication of ICD-10, many countries performed analysis to determine if the WHO classification system would meet their needs

● The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) is the United States’ clinical modification to the World Health Organization’s version of ICD-10

Brief History

Countries Using ICD-10 For Reimbursement or Case Mix:

● United Kingdom - 1995● Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland,

Iceland, Norway, Sweden) - 1994 –1997● France - 1997● Australia - 1998● Belgium - 1999● Germany - 2000● Canada - 2001

Brief History

● The United States remains the only industrialized nation that has not yet implemented ICD-10 or a clinical modification for diseases or causes of illness typically coded in a healthcare facility

● Since 1999, however, the United States has used ICD-10 for mortality reporting (for death certificates)

Why do we need ICD-10?

● ICD-9 is 30 years old –medicine and technology has changed

● Many categories full● Not descriptive enough● Implementing ICD-10-CM will maintain data

comparability internationally and between mortality and morbidity data in the United States

● Would enhance accurate payment for services rendered

Benefits of ICD-10-CM

Greater clinical detail More specificity, laterality, external causes of

injuries, combination codes for diagnoses and symptoms

Reflects advances in medicine and medical technology

Measuring the quality, safety, and efficacy of care Reducing the need for attachments to explain

patient’s condition Improving clinical, financial, and administrative

performance Tracking public health and risks

When will ICD-10 be implemented?

In January 2009, the Department of Health and Human Services published the final rule for adoption of ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS, setting a compliance date of October 1, 2013

On April 9, 2012, HHS released a proposed rule that calls for a one-year delay for the ICD-10 compliance date from October 1, 2013 to October 1, 2014.

On April 17, 2012 the announcement for the ICD-10 delay was published in the Federal Register. A 30-day comment period was granted on the proposed rule and is now closed.

Public comments are being reviewed and analyzed, and the Department will issue a final rule as expeditiously as possible

Page 8: ICD-10-CM Update Presented by: Janet Smith, RHIT, CPC AHIMA Approved ICD-10 Trainer The Tennessee Pediatric Society Foundation1

Reasons behind the delay● There was no one group that spurred CMS to

propose the delay

● The industry’s ongoing struggle to implement HIPAA Version 5010 (a precursor to ICD-10) that was effective January 2012 but has seen enforcement delayed twice because many physicians have had technical trouble implementing the version update

● Physician concern regarding the ICD-10 timeline

● A one-year delay reflects the industry’s need for a quick resolution and providers’ need for additional time to implement, and will not likely penalize those on track with the original deadline

What to Expect with ICD-10? ICD-10-CM (Clinical Modification) will replace ICD-9-CM

diagnosis codes rendered in all healthcare settings.

ICD-10-PCS (Procedural Coding System) will replace the ICD-9-CM procedure codes rendered in the hospital/inpatient setting.

CPT and HCPCS Level II will remain the coding system for physician and professional services and procedures performed in the outpatient setting.

After the implementation of the ICD-10 code set, inpatient reimbursement for Medicare patients will be based on Medicare DRGs using the ICD-10 coding system not ICD-9

Payer and office systems and processes must be able to support both ICD-9 and ICD-10 code sets on the implementation date

How is ICD-10 structured?

● The “look-up” process will be very similar to ICD-9

● The same hierarchical structure is used as ICD-9

● The ICD-10 system will be alphanumeric and contain up to 7 characters

● ICD-10 has approximately 68,000 codes vs. 14,000 in ICD-9

● Code composition and level of detail are the major differences

The Tennessee Pediatric Society Foundation 13

Page 14: ICD-10-CM Update Presented by: Janet Smith, RHIT, CPC AHIMA Approved ICD-10 Trainer The Tennessee Pediatric Society Foundation1

ICD-10- CM Structure 21 Chapters 2 New Chapters

Diseases of the Eye and Adnexa (Ch 7) Diseases of the Ear and Mastoid Process (Ch 8)

Certain Diseases were re-classified and are now found in new chapters Immune Mechanism (Immunity) was moved from

Chapter 4 (Endocrine) to Chapter 3 (Blood Disorders) Injuries (Ch19) are now arranged by body part and

not by injury Mental Disorders (Ch 5), Injury and Poisonings (Ch

19), and External Causes (Ch 20) were all re-organized

The Tennessee Pediatric Society Foundation 14

Page 15: ICD-10-CM Update Presented by: Janet Smith, RHIT, CPC AHIMA Approved ICD-10 Trainer The Tennessee Pediatric Society Foundation1

ICD-10- CM Structure Codes have 3 to 7 alphanumeric characters (vs 5

numeric in ICD-9) Character 1 is always alpha – letters A-Z, except U Character 2 is numeric Character 3-7 can be alpha or numeric Decimal placed after the first three characters Alpha characters are not case-sensitive

A78 – Fever J04.0 – Acute laryngitis S41.111 – Laceration w/o foreign body of right upper arm S63.280A – Dislocation of proximal interphalangeal

joint of right index finger, initial encounter

The Tennessee Pediatric Society Foundation 15

Page 16: ICD-10-CM Update Presented by: Janet Smith, RHIT, CPC AHIMA Approved ICD-10 Trainer The Tennessee Pediatric Society Foundation1

ICD-10- CM Structure Character 4 represents a subcategory that further

defines the site, etiology and manifestation or state of the disease

Character 5 and 6 identify the most accurate level of specificity

Character 7 – Extension

Some codes require 7 characters If a code requires a 7th character and there is no 5th or 6th

character, a placeholder “X” must be used All placeholders of an applicable code must be reported

Example: T16.XXA – Foreign body in right ear, initial encounter

The Tennessee Pediatric Society Foundation 16

S60 – Superficial injury of wrist, hand and fingers

S60.4 – Other superficial injuries of other fingers

S60.45 – Superficial foreign body [splinter] of fingers

S60.451 – Superficial foreign body [splinter] of left index finger

Reimbursement and Quality Problems With ICD-9-CM

● Example –Fracture of Wrist● Patient fractures left wrist● A month later, fractures right wrist● ICD-9-CM does not identify left versus right –

requires additional documentation● ICD-10-CM describes left versus right ● Initial encounter, subsequent encounter● Routine healing, delayed healing, nonunion,

or malunion

What to do now?

● Maintain momentum● Identify current systems and processes that

use ICD-9 codes● Talk with vendors about accommodations

for ICD-10● Take the time to improve clinical

documentation● Evaluation staff training needs● Ask payers how ICD-10 changes may affect

contracts, payment schedules and reimbursement
