About the event
The ICD-10-CM   Diagnostic Coding system is revised, to varying degrees, annually with an   effective date of October 1. These   codes are used to identify the diagnoses being treated while the resident is   in the skilled nursing facility (SNF), as well as for assignment to a   specific category for payment of the services provided in the SNF. The Assessment Coordinator is the   individual responsible for assigning the diagnostic code from the ICD-10-cm   Manual. Unfortunately, most Assessment   Coordinators have not received training in the conventions and guidelines   which direct how the codes are to be assigned. This can lead to incorrect/inappropriate   statistical information gathered by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services   (CMS) and assignment to the incorrect payment category. Providing education to the related concepts   will improve the accuracy of the code assignment. As there are specific guidelines related to   each system, e.g. infection or endocrine, the specific guidelines providence   guidance for assigning the correct code for a system related diagnosis will   be covered.
