Download or read book ICD 10 CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting FY 2021 October 1 2020 September 30 2021 written by Department Of Health And Human Services and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2020-09-06 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These guidelines have been approved by the four organizations that make up the Cooperating Parties for the ICD-10-CM: the American Hospital Association (AHA), the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA), CMS, and NCHS. These guidelines are a set of rules that have been developed to accompany and complement the official conventions and instructions provided within the ICD-10-CM itself. The instructions and conventions of the classification take precedence over guidelines. These guidelines are based on the coding and sequencing instructions in the Tabular List and Alphabetic Index of ICD-10-CM, but provide additional instruction. Adherence to these guidelines when assigning ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes is required under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). The diagnosis codes (Tabular List and Alphabetic Index) have been adopted under HIPAA for all healthcare settings. A joint effort between the healthcare provider and the coder is essential to achieve complete and accurate documentation, code assignment, and reporting of diagnoses and procedures. These guidelines have been developed to assist both the healthcare provider and the coder in identifying those diagnoses that are to be reported. The importance of consistent, complete documentation in the medical record cannot be overemphasized. Without such documentation accurate coding cannot be achieved. The entire record should be reviewed to determine the specific reason for the encounter and the conditions treated.

You'll find detailed background information on the evolution and importance of medical coding, as well as reliable, straightforward guidelines for each of the coding classifications you'll use in practice. Information on body systems and common drugs and conditions helps you understand treatment concepts as you translate them into codes. Realistic examples demonstrate the coding process, while practical exercises within each chapter test your comprehension and reinforce coding principles. A systematic approach outlines basic concepts and walks you through the complete coding process using all three volumes of the ICD-9-CM. A full-color design makes anatomy and physiology stand out and provides visual reinforcement of key content. ICD-9-CM guidelines open each coding chapter, with examples that clearly demonstrate their real-world applications. Learning objectives help you study more effectively. Abbreviations are clearly defined at the beginning of each chapter for quick reference. Problem-solving exercises throughout each chapter provide valuable practice using key coding principles as you learn them. Illustrations and overviews of anatomy, physiology, and related disease conditions in each coding chapter help you better visualize and understand what the codes represent. A glossary at the end of each chapter helps you quickly find the definitions for key terms. Direct references to the AHA's Coding Clinic for ICD-9-CM verify accuracy and point you to additional sources of reliable information. A chapter on the medical record identifies the components of patient records essential to your coding responsibilities. Information on the evolution of coding enhances your understanding of the current industry. Coverage of common medications used to treat specific disorders familiarizes you with the drug names you'll encounter in medical records and can help in clarifying a diagnosis with the physician.

Download or read book Improving Diagnosis in Health Care written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2015-12-29 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Getting the right diagnosis is a key aspect of health care - it provides an explanation of a patient's health problem and informs subsequent health care decisions. The diagnostic process is a complex, collaborative activity that involves clinical reasoning and information gathering to determine a patient's health problem. According to Improving Diagnosis in Health Care, diagnostic errors-inaccurate or delayed diagnoses-persist throughout all settings of care and continue to harm an unacceptable number of patients. It is likely that most people will experience at least one diagnostic error in their lifetime, sometimes with devastating consequences. Diagnostic errors may cause harm to patients by preventing or delaying appropriate treatment, providing unnecessary or harmful treatment, or resulting in psychological or financial repercussions. The committee concluded that improving the diagnostic process is not only possible, but also represents a moral, professional, and public health imperative. Improving Diagnosis in Health Care, a continuation of the landmark Institute of Medicine reports To Err Is Human (2000) and Crossing the Quality Chasm (2001), finds that diagnosis-and, in particular, the occurrence of diagnostic errorsâ€"has been largely unappreciated in efforts to improve the quality and safety of health care. Without a dedicated focus on improving diagnosis, diagnostic errors will likely worsen as the delivery of health care and the diagnostic process continue to increase in complexity. Just as the diagnostic process is a collaborative activity, improving diagnosis will require collaboration and a widespread commitment to change among health care professionals, health care organizations, patients and their families, researchers, and policy makers. The recommendations of Improving Diagnosis in Health Care contribute to the growing momentum for change in this crucial area of health care quality and safety.
