Our ICD 10 coders in Durham NC help you adapt to new coding requirements
The coming of the new ICD 10 code set presents a challenge to health plan providers. Tens of thousands of new diagnosis codes have been created and there are relatively few straight ICD 9 replacement codes. Fortunately, HCC Coders can help health plan providers with this transition by connecting them with expert, fully trained ICD 10 coders in Durham NC. Using the new codes will help everyone because the new codes were created for the purpose of:
- Modernizing the entire code set
- Ensuring consistency in terminology
- Allowing for unique coding of inpatient hospital procedures
- Enabling reporting of laterality in diagnosis (right vs. left arm, eye, kidney, etc.)
- Providing significant room for expansion, allowing for the code set to incorporate new procedures and devices
