Description

ICD 10 PCS Codebook - page 899 Coding Exercises, complete a total of 10 5 questions for each section using 3M. The answers for all the coding exercises are at the end of this appendix.

You may verify your code, but you will need to take a screenshot of each question in 3M completed showing the correct code to receive credit.

Screenshots need to be a historical view showing each step how to get to the correct code. If you have questions please refer to the 3M assignment that was assigned in module 2 and /or send messages through the virtual café so that all students in the class may see the answer.

Complete your work in a Word document then upload it to this submission link. Identify each question for credit.

This project has been modified from 10 to 5 questions for each section of the coding exercises at the back of your PCS book due to the delayed posting of your project.

Enable block ups to ensure access to the Encoder tool Start by clicking on the help section to review how to use 3M Encoder CRS (Coding and Reimbursement System) – commonly called 3M or just simply Encoder This should open the following link in your web browser https://apps.3mhis.com/download/3M_Docs_Secured/Coding/CRS_Library/index.htm#b asic_information_for_new_users.htm Read through the introduction, Coding References, Finding Codes, drugs, terms (In the window you will see the following. Click through each of the hyperlinks to read further information and how to search for codes, articles and references: Finding codes, drugs, and terms You can locate codes or terminology in a reference by: • Using the Index function to search for specific codes or terms. • Using the Search function for more complex search capabilities. • Browsing lists. The 3M™ Integrated Codebooks (both ICD-9 and ICD-10 versions) use different search capabilities. You can search by alphabetical index or search the tabulars by number or text. In this section Searching for codes or terms with the Index AHA Coding Clinic for ICD-9-CM and ICD-10-CM/PCS Finding codes, reference articles, or terms using Search Viewing search results Browsing the medical dictionary alphabetical listing Ready to start coding? First, set up your encoder for the patient you are coding. I like to set up a generic patient who is undetermined sex, age 33. This allows for most codes to be available. Remember, encoder will not let you code a diagnosis for a patient whose demographics do not match the code you want, so you will need to ensure this is accurate! You will also need to enter the date of service (or today’s date), and change the product from DRGFINDER to CODEFINDER. Let’s look up the code for a Excision of a malignant melanoma from the skin of the right ear, 0HB2XZZ. By now, you should know by going through your ICD-10 PCS coding book, that you would start in the medical and surgical section under the Root Operation of “Excision/Skin/Ear” in the Index in the Alphabetical Section, which would direct you code 0HB2XZUsing the same process of looking up the action word, or problem, you will begin by searching for Excision Take note of the next to Resection and Other Specified. If you click on a , 3M will provide you with useful information to guide you in determining the proper code path, often referencing AHIMA Coding Clinics and Coding specific guidelines with examples of definitions. Take a look at Resection. Notice you may click on References for even further information still. Next: Click on #2 for other CG: If it’s not documented, it didn’t happen- meaning, if it is not stated as a resection or identified as a total body part, then the lesser or Other Specified option applies. If an option for Unspecified applies, this will typically be your default when a specific “Other” option is not applicable. Always review any question marks for more information and coding guidelines: For “Skin”, you will select #8 after reviewing the for further details. On page 2, you will come to the end with the option of “Other/Unspecified” Since “Essential” is not found, you will click on this. Some codes have options for more information. Remember, if it’s not documented, it didn’t happen! So, without information of Skin Graft, you will select the “No/Unspecified” option You will need to remember your anatomy, as with all coding: Notice at this point that the coder will begin to show your code. You will see your code being built on the top right once enough information is gained to provide some detail: You still need to indicate the site, select Ear, right Finally, we are given our code: From here, you may also want to select “History” to review the coding path that you took to find this code. This will prove very useful in showing a manager (or myself) how you came to a specific code, and can help to identify where an incorrect code was selected wrong. You will also use this for the assignment at the end of this lesson to show your coding work! Mare sure you click “History” before clicking continue to add the code. Once you add the code, you cannot come back here, and will need to re-enter the entire code to see the code path. By Clicking “Copy Path” your computer will have a copied “printscreen” of the steps you took to get to your code, referred to as your “Coding Path”. Remember this, as you will use it to turn in coding for this assignment. Copy Path will look like this: -- EXCI -- Excision -- Other specified (tissue, lesion, partial body part) -- Skin (includes scar tissue) -- No/unspecified -- Head, face and neck -- Ear, Right Code Display You may also click on a given section to go back to that section of the coding path and make changes Click continue to add the code to your patient profile. Now you have the option to add additional information such as diagnoses, additional procedures (PCS) and review references. In other products of 3M, you even have coding edits and references with ICD 10 CM and CPT/ HCPCS edits. You will learn about this in other coding modules. Now it’s your turn, using the encoder and these same directions, code the assignment, turn in a “print screen” showing the Coding Path for each of the following patients: (Remember, if it’s not documented, it didn’t happen. Some of these may require you to use “unspecified or not otherwise specified” options) 1. Routine Foley Catheter placement through the urethra You will come up with the following code, turn in the coding path after you have coded this: Great! Now code: 2. Foreign body removal, skin of left thumb 3. TURP (not documented as a complete removal) Turn in these 3 Coding Paths with the correct codes.
