In the ever-evolving landscape of healthcare, staying ahead is essential. Annually, the ICD-10-CM code set undergoes a transformative journey, New codes are approved, revisions made and codes deleted.
Every office needs to review these new codes while also being aware of changes and revisions to other codes. In many instances, a code subset is expanded, potentially invalidating a previously used and valid code. Terminology changes, technology evolves, and both codes and their subsets undergo changes. It's essential to pass along knowledge of new and updated codes to providers to ensure compliant coding and to prevent frustration on their part. And let's not forget the possible risk of rejection for utilizing an invalid code.
