Selecting diagnosis codes is faster and easier with Buck's 2022 ICD-10-CM for Hospitals. Designed by coders for coders, this full-color manual includes all the ICD-10 codes that you need for today’s inpatient coding. As coders need extensive knowledge to code with ICD-10-CM — and to choose from the thousands of possible codes — this edition makes it easier with colorful anatomy plates (including Netter’s Anatomy illustrations) to help you understand anatomy and how it can affect your code choices. In addition, it comes with durable spiral binding, and includes a companion website with the latest coding updates.
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.
Take charge of ICD-10 documentation requirements The implementation of ICD-10 brings with it new documentation requirements that will have a significant impact on the work of your CDI team. The higher degree of specificity of information needed to code accurately will have a direct correlation to reimbursement and compliance. CDI specialists need a firm understanding of the new code set, and the rules that govern it, to obtain the appropriate level of documentation from physicians. The Clinical Documentation Improvement Specialist's Guide to ICD-10 is the only book that addresses ICD-10 from the CDI point of view. Written by CDI experts, it explains the new documentation requirements and clinical indicators of commonly reported diagnoses and the codes associated with those conditions. You'll find the specific documentation requirements to appropriately code conditions such as heart failure, sepsis, and COPD. Learn from your peers The Clinical Documentation Improvement Specialist's Guide to ICD-10 includes case studies from two hospitals that have already begun ICD-10 training so you can use their timelines as a blue print to begin your organization's training and implementation. ICD-10 implementation happens in 2013. It's not too soon to start developing the expertise and comfort level you'll need to manage this important industry change and help your organization make a smooth transition. Benefits: * Tailored exclusively for CDI specialists * Side-by-side comparison of what documentation is necessary now v. what will be required starting October 1, 2013 * Timelines to train physicians in new documentation requirements to ensure readiness by implementation date * Strategies and best practices to ensure physician buy-in

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.

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.
Now featuring our hallmark color-coding and symbols reflecting the new ICD-10 MS-DRG reimbursement edits, the 2014 ICD-10-CM: The Complete Official Draft Code Set makes facing the challenge of learning a new code set easier. Prepare for the future of coding with the latest and most comprehensive update to the code set. The current rule published in the Federal Register sets the adoption of ICD-10-CM to replace ICD-9-CM Volumes 1 and 2 to go into effect October 1, 2014.
