It is vital to provide an accurate ICD-10 code on prescriptions and medical record notes for accurate compliance with payer requirements.
Clearly document:
-
ICD-10 codes and descriptor narratives
-
Direct connection between diagnosis, underlying cause and resultant condition. For example:
-
Trauma: Partial or complete traumatic amputation from car accident
-
Disease: Amputation secondary to gangrene from diabetic wound
-
Congenital: Congenital condition from a missing limb at birth
-
-
Cause, condition, Rx and notes that consistently support the codes you select.
