Cheryl Evans, MHRM, RHIA, CCS
This two-hour workshop is designed to help those in our field who wish to maintain their ICD-10-CM/PCS coding skills. Many in our field do not currently code medical cases and are at risk of losing their coding knowledge and skills. In this session, we will review coding of the principal diagnosis and procedure, review aspects of common facility coding guidelines, and review often missed coding guidelines/coders’ notations. Attendees will have the opportunity to analyze and code actual cases, thus practicing the learned skills reviewed in this session.
Session Objectives:
After completing this training, you will be able to:
- Locate key aspects of case review to identify proper coding of principal diagnoses and principal procedures.
- Consider the critical aspects of a typical facility coding policy that impact efficient coding focus.
- Recognize typically missed coding guidelines and coders’ notations in the tabular.
- Code sample cases using the above skills
