We are referring to the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Edition, Clinical Modification/Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-CM/PCS). The new classification system provides significant improvements through greater detailed information and the ability to expand to capture additional advancements in clinical medicine. ICD-10-CM/PCS improvements include:* Much greater specificity and clinical information, which results in: * Improved ability to measure health care services* Increased sensitivity when refining grouping and reimbursement methodologies * Enhanced ability to conduct public health surveillance* Decreased need to include supporting documentation with claims* Updated medical terminology and classification of diseases * Codes that allow comparison of mortality and morbidity data Better data for: * Measuring care furnished to patients* Designing payment systems * Processing claims * Making clinical decisions* Tracking public health* Identifying fraud and abuse* Conducting research.Whether you were an opponent or proponent, we still have to learn it.
