Encouraging Your Doctors to Come On Board the ICD-10 Train
Erica Remer, MD, FACEP Clinical Documentation Education Coordinator
of UH
Slide 3
floccinaucinihilipilification the action or habit of estimating
something as worthless
Slide 4
Biggest concern about ICD-10 in a poll done by ICD-10 Monitor
in January 2013
Slide 5
Slide 6
Why is this so challenging? Doctors arent businessmen Doctors
really just want to take care of the patients They think the coding
is clerical They dont see the utility of ICD-10 Their time is
constantly being stretched They think modifying documentation is
fraud
Slide 7
CMS position We do not believe there is anything inappropriate,
unethical, or otherwise wrong with hospitals taking full advantage
of coding opportunities to maximize Medicare payment that is
supported by documentation in the medical record. CMS 2008 IPPS
Final Rule
Slide 8
Why is this so challenging? Schizophrenic coding and billing
Pro vs. technical side
Slide 9
How to talk to the doctors What do they know? What
misconceptions do they have? What do they care about? How can you
get them to invest? What turns them off? How can you tailor your
discussion to the doctor?
Slide 10
Reality Check ICD 9 has run out of space
Slide 11
ICD 10 It is not just a revised and bigger version of ICD 9
(13,000 vs. 68,000 in CM) In many ways, it is much BETTER than ICD
9 (more detail, specificity)
Slide 12
Slide 13
Reality Check LOTS OF PHYSICIAN INPUT
Slide 14
Reality Check ICD-10 is coming! October 1, 2014
Slide 15
Reality Check Documentation is not a waste of doctor time.
Slide 16
Goal: Improved documentation Consequences: Support ICD-10
which, in turn: Better quality measures Capture revenue
Slide 17
Better documentation trend quality and outcomes decrease errors
improve communication impact multidisciplinary care improve data
mining facilitate research public health surveillance global
comparability
Slide 18
Whats in it for ME?! SOI/ROM, mortality index, CMI, LOS
Physician profiling and National Registries Consumer health sites
(Healthgrades) Quality reporting, QA committee reviews, Mortality
reviews Physician utilization profiles (efficiency metrics)

Analogies for your arsenal Dictionary analogy Windows 98

Slide 20
Why IS more specificity better? Respiratory distress Tachypnea
Nasal flaring, retractions Acute hypoxemic respiratory failure
Slide 21
ICD 10 CM New sensible structure Characters 1-3 category 4-6
etiology, anatomic site, severity or other clinical detail 7
extension Need the full complement of characters H 4012 1 3
Slide 22
ICD 10 CM example S52Forearm Fracture S52.5Fracture of lower
end of radius S52.52Torus fracture of lower end of radius
S52.521Torus fracture of lower end of right radius S52.521ATorus
fracture of lower end of right radius, initial encounter, closed
fracture (813.45Torus fracture of radius)
Slide 23
More Codes 40% more codes in respiratory and digestive diseases
16 times more codes in musculoskeletal and connective tissue
disorders 26 times more codes to enumerate causes of injuries
Slide 24
You already know it all! Not new medicine Not new procedures
Not new information Just need to document what you know!
Slide 25
ICD 10 CM example T82Complication of cardiac and vasc
prosthetic devices, implants, and grafts T82.5Mechanical
complication of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants
T82.53Leakage of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants
T82.531Leakage of surgically created arteriovenous shunt
T82.531DLeakage of surgically created arteriovenous shunt,
subsequent encounter (996.1Mechanical complication of other
vascular device, implant, and graft) 1 code in ICD 9 to 156 codes
in ICD 10

Benefits of specific documentation Eliminate wasted time
reading to figure out what the patient had or what procedures were
done G81.01 Flaccid hemiplegia affecting right dominant side
Eliminate risk of poor documentation: Medical necessity Compliance
Legal Revenue cycle Denials Audits Improve quality of care
Slide 28
Example Crohns dxd 6 mo ago by colonoscopy. Flaring up with
cramping, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and melena. Repeat colonoscopy
shows abscess with bleeding. K50.80 = Crohns of both small and
large intestine without complications K50.814 = Crohns of both
small and large intestine with abscess
Slide 29
Example Short order cook burns right forearm, and a week later
burns left forearm T22.211A = Second degree burn, right forearm,
initial encounter. T22.112A = First degree burn, left forearm,
initial encounter

Research Heaven W 58 Contact with animate mechanical forces
W58.01 = Bitten by alligator W58.02 = Struck by alligator W58.03 =
Crushed by alligator W58.11 = Bitten by crocodile W58.12 = Struck
by crocodile W58.13 = Crushed by crocodile
Slide 31
Specificity is good W00.1XXA = Fall from stairs and steps due
to ice and snow, initial encounter Contribution of tobacco,
alcohol, and drugs Medication underdosing
Slide 32
Nonspecific codes will still exist Scheduling and registration
delays Delays in coding Increase in queries Increase overall
billing cycle time Increase A/R days Increase in medical necessity
questions and denials Increase in rejected claims Decrease in
reimbursement Increased scrutiny by CMS and OIG
Slide 33
GEMs will not be the answer GEM = General Equivalence
Mapping
Slide 34
Costs DRG shifts Coder productivity will go down 20-50% MD
productivity will go down 10-20% Patient dissatisfaction with
delays and resubmissions

Physician Champions Love a challenge Have knowledge, skills,
and talents Like to break down barriers Can recognize and reach out
to colleagues who might not think this important, dont handle
change well, or who think ICD 10 is a coder problem Can articulate
in doctor-speak

sprains/strains, fractures/dislocations/subluxations, traumatic
brain injury, spinal cord injury External causes, like accidents,
falls, exposure to smoke, fire, or heat, assault Complications of
implants, prostheses, devices, like infection, displacement,
dislodgement, etc. Poisonings, allergic reactions Episodes of
Care
