Diagnosis coding accuracy is paramount to appropriate payment under PDPM, as ICD-10 Diagnosis codes and other patient characteristics are used as basis for classification in determining MCR payment. The 5-day MDS establishes the PDPM payment category for the entire Medicare stay which is why it is so important to have good processes in place for establishing the principal diagnosis and having information to support coding all active diagnosis prior to the 5-day assessment reference date. This program will include information regarding the Official ICD-10 Coding Guidelines, best practices for accurate ICD-10-CM code assignment, how to avoid common coding mistakes, and the importance of principal diagnosis identification.
Attendees should have their current ICD-10 coding book in front of them, as the training will include coding exercises and scenarios where the coding book will be used.
