ďˇ Consists of three to five characters
ďˇ First digit is numeric or alpha (E or V)
ďˇ Second, third, fourth, and fifth digits are numeric
ďˇ Always at least three digits
ďˇ Decimal placed after the first three characters
ďˇ Consists of three to seven characters
ďˇ First digit is alpha
ďˇ All letters are used except for U
ďˇ Second and third digits are numeric
ďˇ Fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh digit can be alpha or
numeric
ďˇ Decimal placed after the first three characters
Code Structure of the ICD-10-CM versus ICD-9-CM
ICD-10-CM codes may consist of up to seven digits, with the seventh digit extensions representing visit encounter
or sequelae for injuries and external causes.

Hinweis der Redaktion
Welcome to the June 2011 monthly In-service. My name is Venita Jones and I am glad to see you here today for our exciting inservice on the ICD-10. As many of you know, the ICD-10 will go into effect October 1, 2013. Today we will focus on the introduction the ICD-10-CM. This and future in-services on this subject will help us transition to the new ICD-10 coding sets.
Our presentation highlights will be as follows: (Speaker will read the bulleted items)
(Speaker will continue to read the bulleted items)
The Census Bureau depends on people to make a count of the population. The ICD helps make a count of diseases, injuries, symptoms, reasons for the encounter, factors that influence health status, and external causes of disease and death, such as accidents. Such information is used for epidemiology, prevention, prevention, managing health care, allocation of resources, outcomes monitoring, in research, clinical context and primary care. Information is reported, categorized, analyzed, presented, and decisions are based on this information at any level of a health system, ICD makes people count.
ICD stands for the International Classification of Diseases, is a classification system that is used in 194 countries. It has been developed internationally since 1893. It also serves a way to capture mortality and morbidity for reporting purposes. There have been ten major revisions with the most being ICD-10. The World Health Organization (WHO) maintained the ICD for over fifty years. The current edition of the ICD, the ICD-9-CM has been in existence for over thirty years.
Â
Currently the ICD-9-CM is outdated because it does currently support the 21st health information systems. With the emergence of technology, new diseases, new treatment methodologies and many advancement s in healthcare, the ICD-9-CM is obsolete in current trends.
The ICD-9-CM is incompatible with HIPPAâs transaction sets codes. This means that the ICD-9-CM is not compatible with electronic transaction mediums such as reimbursement and electronic languages.
Â
Cooperating parties are responsible for maintaining the ICD-9-CM. Those parties are the American Hospital Association (AHA), American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA), the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). These four organizations have a role in maintenance of the ICD-9-CM. The AHA sponsors the Central Office on ICD-CM and publishes the Coding Clinic, the source of official coding guidelines for ICD-9-CM. AHIMA is provides coding education, and certifies professional coders, the CMS maintains the procedure classification. The NCHS maintains the disease classification.
Â
The ICD-10 has been in use since 1989 for mortality recording.
Remember the implementation date is October 1, 2013, which is less than two years from now.
The ICD-9-CM was developed in the 1970s, its coding systems no longer fits with the 21st century healthcare system. Initially, the ICD-9-CM was used just for classification and coding purposes. But today it no longer fits into the current health information needs. (AHIMAa).
Â
The United States is virtually the only industrialized nation that has not upgraded its morbidity classification system. In 1999, the United States implemented ICD-10 for mortality or death certificate coding; however, morbidity reported with the necessary clinical modification of ICD-10 has been delayed.
Â
Upgrading to ICD-10-CM/PCS will improve the United Statesâ ability to track and respond to international public health threats, increase the values of the U.S. investment in SNOMEDÂŽ, and better achieve the benefits of an electronic health record (EHR) (AHIMA 2009a).
Â
Additionally, replacing the ICD-9-CM withICD-10-CM will better maintain clinical data comparability with the rest of the world concerning the conditions prompting healthcare services. ICD-10-CM will make it easier to share disease and mortality at a time when such global data sharing is critical for public health such as documenting the West Nile virus and SARS complexes for earlier detection and better tracking. Also provide the ability to track bioterrorism events and other public health outbreaks.
Â
The ICD-9-CM lacks sufficient specificity and detail to fully describe the patientâs condition.
Â
It is running out of capacity, and the limited structural design cannot accommodate advances in medicine and medical technology and the growing need for quality data.
Â
It is obsolete and no longer reflects current knowledge of diseases processes, contemporary medical terminology, or the modern practice of medicine.
Â
It hampers the ability to compare costs and outcomes of different medical terminologies
Â
It cannot support the U.S. transition to an interoperable health data exchange in the United States (AHIMA 2009a).

Moving to the new code sets will also permit improved efficiencies and lower administrative costs due to the replacement of a dysfunctional classification system. This in turn allows: (Speaker will read the bulleted items to audience) (When speaker get to the RAND Corporation Study, the speaker will say the following before reading the bulleted items) In a 2004 cost/benefit analysis for HHS, the RAND Corporation quantified some of the benefits of improved data derived from the ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS. RAND concluded that the benefits far outweigh the costs of implementation, estimating the dollar value and the benefits in the following categories: (Speaker will then read the remaining bulleted items)
Grouping of codes: Conditions have been grouped in a more logical fashion than in ICD-9-CM. In many cases, this improvement was accomplished by moving conditions from one chapter to another or one section to another. Numerous codes have been added to, deleted from, combined, or moved in ICD-10-CM. ICD-10-CM includes four more chapters than the ICD-9-CM, although conditions were classified to other chapters in ICD-9-CM.
Â
More complete descriptions: In ICD-10-CM, the subcategory titles are usually complete so that the coding professional does not have to read previous codes to understand the meaning of the code.
Â
Fifth and sixth characters: Fifth and sixth characters are incorporated into the code listing rather than having common fifth characters listed at the beginning of a chapter, section, or category.
Â
Laterality: ICD-10-CM incorporates laterality of conditions or injuries at the fifth- or sixth-character level.
Â
Increased specificity: ICD-10-CM offers greatly expanded detail for the various conditions. Many categories that were limited to three or four digits in ICD-9-CM have fifth, sixth, and even seventh characters, or extensions, in the ICD-10-CM. In some cases, single ICD-9-CM codes were split up into several ICD-10-CM codes to provide greater specificity.
Â
Use of seventh character: Seventh characters are used in ICD-10-CM to provide additional information. They are most found in the injury codes but also found in other chapters.
Â
Combination codes: Numerous codes in ICD-10-CM group etiology and manifestation. In ICD-9-CM, generally two codes are required to code etiology and manifestation.
Â
Terminology used: Many of the category code/subcategory code titles have been changed to reflect new technology and more recent medical terminology.
Â
Postprocedural conditions: Many codes have been added to ICD-10-CM to describe postoperative and Postprocedural conditions.
Â
Trimester specificity: ICD-10-CM codes in the pregnancy, delivery, and puerperium chapter include those designating the trimester in which the condition occurs.
Â
New codes: ICD-10-CM provides codes for many conditions that were not included in ICD-9-CM, most notably, codes for blood type and alcohol level.

(Speaker will read the contents of this slide and show the comparisons)
The structure of the ICD-10-CM is similar to the ICD-9 by having three volumes. The difference is that Volume 3 of the ICD-9-CM will be replaced to ICD-10-PCS. The PCS stand for the procedural coding system which will presented at a later inservice date. The ICD-10 have three volumes. Volume 1 is the tabular list, volume 2 is the instructional manual, and volume 3 is the alphabetical index.
(Speaker will read this slide)
The hierarchal structure is the same as the ICD-9 but the ICD-10 codes are alphanumeric and all the letters are used except for U, which is reserved for new diseases of certain etiology.
V and E codes are incorporated into the main classification of ICD-10-CM
Some three-digit codes are left vacant to allow for code revisions and future additions
The tabular list is grouped into disease groups and health-related problems
It may also contain inclusions and exclusion notes and some coding rules
(Speaker will read the contents on the slide)
Volume 3, the Alphabetic Index, is an alphabetical list of the diseases and conditions which have codes in the Tabular List. There are more entries in the Index than there are in the Tabular List because some diseases have more than one name and some diseases are grouped under one code. (Speaker will read the contents in the Also contains)
(Speaker will read the Golden Coding Rule Number 1 and after reading Volumes 1 and 3 are inseparable the speaker will read) Volumes 1 and 2 have to be used together for each case such as cause of death or diagnosis.
Volume 1 has 22 chapters as compared to the ICD-9 having 19 chapters. Most chapters in ICD-10 are associated with particular body systems. For example, Chapter 11 relates to diseases of digestive system. There are also some specific disease chapters. These are to capture types of diseases which might affect the whole body or many different sites or are considered systemic-- Example Chapter 2-Neoplasms and Chapter 15-Pregnancy, Childbirth and the Puerperium.
Chapter 20 is for coding external causes of morbidity and mortality. External factors are the reason why a person was injured, how it happened, reason for contact with the health services not relating to ill-health, and other factors affecting health
Chapter 21 is for coding factors influencing health status and contact with health services.
Chapter 17 is used to code symptoms, signs, and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified.
The chapters you will use most contains codes for either diseases of a specific body system or special diseases.
Gold Coding Rule Number 2, The special diseases category take priority over the body systems categories. For example, Neoplasm of the lung, we would choose Neoplasm instead of diseases of lung and respiratory system.
The ICD is divided into chapters, based on diseases of body systems, special diseases or external factors.
Look at the sample presented here, we are looking at Chapter 2 which represents Neoplasms. The code range for neoplasms are C00 to D48). You see here that neoplasms have two alphabetical sequencesâc and d.
Now look at the block section. The block groups together categories having some common factor. On the slide here, we have category codes C00 to C14 which represents the Malignant neoplasms of lip, oral cavity and pharynx.
Blocks are divided in categories represented by three-character codes. See that we have the category code C00 representing Malignant neoplasm of the lip with an exclusion note.
These three-digit codes may be subdivided into codes with specific fourth characters, certain codes. It may also have optional supplementary characters to add more detail. Look at the code section, we have code C00.0 representing the External upper lip with inclusions upper lip, NOS, lipstick area and vermillion border. Remember that some diseases may have just the category code as the highest specificity.
The users of ICD are certifiers, coders, and users of coded data. A certifier of causes of death is a person authorized by law who issues a certificate, on the prescribed form, stating to the best of his/her knowledge and belief, the cause of death and other facts related to the death for submission to prescribed authorities. Depending on the local circumstances, this may be the doctor who attended the deceased in his/her illness, or the coroner for deaths of persons who were not attended during the last illness or for unnatural death due to violence or accident, or some designated official.
A coder is a trained individual who translates the documented causes of or deaths or morbidity into standardized ICD codes using the rules of conventions inherent in the classification.
Users of coded data do not need to code but they may analyze the codes such as statisticians and epidemiologists or they may need to make decisions based on information gained from coded data such as resource allocators, politicians, or case-mix experts.

There are many facilities are slowly accepting implementation of the ICD-10. Other things to put in consideration is the cost of training, upgrading systems and other things of that nature.
In conclusion, we have looked at an introduction to the ICD-10-CM, its history, why we need to change to the new system. We were able to do comparisons between the ICD-9 and ICD-10, we looked at a sample code, the three volumes that comprised of the ICD-10-CM and learning two of the golden rules of coding. We also identified the users of the ICD and the implementation of the ICD-10. We must get ready for the bigger and better changes that lies ahead in health information. Thank you for your participation!
