After Oct. 1st, your currently paid claims can suddenly turn into denials
After the ICD-10-CM transitional grace period, Medicare will no longer pay claims with diagnosis codes that are CLOSE to accurate. And to make it worse, payers haven’t been telling you what’s wrong with the claims you’ve submitted incorrectly, so fixing the problem can seem impossible.
The only way to ensure your diagnosis coding is accurate so your claims continue to get paid is to have a solid handle on the core of ICD-10-CM code selection.
