• Ask questions• Learn what testing reveals • Be proactive using what we are
learning• Continue learning up until the time of
implementation• Go-live planning• Plan for after go live
Now is a time to learn everything we can-

• Earlier misconceptions-DRG variance 2-6%-MDC shifts not expected• Expected results-Coder productivity decrease-If you are not proficient now you won’t
be proficient using ICD-10

• MDC shifts did occur• Time-to-code IP claims decreased from 3-5
per hour to 1-2 per hour• Coding errors included:
-invalid codes
-decimals in incorrect places
-coding not following coding conventions
This caused increased rejected and pended claims
Testing Revealed:

• The answer “DOCUMENTATION”• Back to the Basics• Look at Processes and Workflow now• Staff adjustments• Dual coding • Peer review• Physician queries
What should we do?

Go From ICD-9 to ICD-10
Remember:
• If it was not working that well for ICD-9-CM/PCS it won’t work for ICD 10 CM!
Think about this:
![Page 14: Clinical Documentation Improvement for ICD-10 HiMAH 2013 Annual Meeting Honolulu, Hawaii](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56814428550346895db0c32a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

• Top 10 common clinical diagnoses • If physicians are motivated or
conditioned to include specificity in these top clinical diagnoses then the road to a successful transition to clinical documentation under ICD-10 can be established
Focus your efforts:
![Page 15: Clinical Documentation Improvement for ICD-10 HiMAH 2013 Annual Meeting Honolulu, Hawaii](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56814428550346895db0c32a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

• Run a report of the top 20 MS DRGs for the last fiscal year
• Review diagnoses• Tailor ICD-10 training for the common
clinical diagnoses that your physicians manage
Tailor your CDI program:

•Queries will be mandatory for the diagnosis “urosepsis” in ICD-10-CM•More specific documentation is needed when reporting sepsis. Septicemia is no longer synonymous with sepsis•Specific cell types are required to code malignancy neoplasms of the blood and immune system accurately•Nutritional anemia require more information on the cause of the anemia•More specific information on the type of immune disorder is required

• Anemia appears in code categories D50-D64.
• ICD-10 also identifies anemia according to type, but the categories rely on different language
-nutritional (iron deficiency in ICD-9)
-Hemolytic (e.g., sickle cell)
-Aplastic and other anemia, which include acute blood loss anemia and anemia of chronic disease.

Chronic Kidney disease and Kidney Transplant Status•Patient who have undergone kidney transplant may still have some form of CKD, because the kidney transplant may not fully restore kidney function. Therefore, the presence of CKD alone does not constitute a transplant complication. •Assign the appropriate N18 code for the patient’s stage of CKD and code Z94.0 Kidney transplant status.• If a transplant complication such as failure or rejection or other transplant complication is documented see section I.C.19.g for information on coding complications of a kidney transplant.

Glasgow Coma Scale-The Glasgow coma scale codes (R40.2-) can be used
in conjunction with traumatic brain injury codes, acute cerebrovascular disease or sequelae of cerebrovascular disease codes. The codes are primarily for use by trauma registries, but they may be used in any setting where this information is collected. The coma scale codes should be sequenced after the diagnosis codes.
At a minimum report the initial score documented on presentation at the facility. This may be a score from the emergency medicine technician or the ER department. If desired a facility may choose to capture several scores.

Underdosing-Underdosing refers to taking less of a
medication than is prescribed by a provider or a manufacturer’s instruction. For underdosing assign the code from categories T36-T50 (fifth or sixth character6) Codes for underdosing should never be assigned as principal or first-listed codes. If a patient has a relapse or exacerbation of the medical condition for which the drug is prescribed because of the reduction in dose, then the medical condition itself should be coded.
