ICD-10 Coding for Skilled Nursing Homes – March 2024

Live and On Demand Access

The virtual training will be recorded. All participants registered prior to the live training will have access to both the live and recorded training. Participants registered after the live training will have access to the recorded version. The recorded version will be available until May 31, 2024.

Description

This virtual workshop will focus on accurate ICD-10-CM coding with the focus on post-acute care.  ICD-10-CM coding has a major impact on the PDPM Medicare payment system.  NHAs, nurse leaders and other members of the Medicare team will need to ensure that their clinical team knows who can diagnose, where to find diagnosis documentation, how to use an ICD-10-CM coding manual, the ICD-10-CM coding guidelines, and chapter specific guidelines.  HIPAA requires diagnoses be coded to the highest degree of specificity.

ICD-10 Coding Manual Required

Participants need access to an ICD-10-CM Coding Manual to receive the greatest benefit from the course. For class purposes, the current ICD-10-CM DY2023 manual is preferred, but not required.

Discounted ICD-10 Coding manuals (Physician version) are available from OPTUM.

The 2023 ICD-10-CM for Professional Physicians sells for $54.98 for a softbound copy.
