The structure of ICD-9 codes limits the number of new codes that can be created, and many ICD-9 categories are full. ICD-10 codes will affect diagnosis and inpatient procedure codings for everyone covered by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), not just providers who submit only Medicare or Medicaid claims.Claims that contain both ICD-9 and ICD-10 Diagnosis CodesPlease be aware that HealthChoice, the Department of Rehabilitation Services and the Department of Corrections have adopted CMS guidelines for handling claims for charges incurred prior to Oct. 1 and after Oct. 1, 2015. Providers and facilities cannot submit one claim with charges incurred prior to Oct. 1 and charges incurred on or after Oct. 1. ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes cannot be submitted on the same claim; they must be submitted on two separate claims. Failure to follow these CMS guidelines will result in either your clearinghouse rejecting your claim or our medical and dental claims administrator denying your claim. For specific claim filing guidelines, please visit the CMS website at outreach-and-education/medicare-learning-network-mln/mlnmattersarticles/downloads/SE1408.pdf. If you have any questions, please contact our medical and dental claims administrator at 1-405-416-1800 or toll-free 1-800-782-5218.ICD-10 Testing RequestedTesting is crucial for the implementation of ICD-10 codes. The testing process will aid in the smooth transition to claims processing under the new coding guidelines. Do not wait to submit test claims as this may ultimately cause delays in the accurate and timely processing of your claims. Send your test claims now so any claim issues related to this change can be identified and resolved. Contact your clearinghouse to begin the ICD-10 testing process. You can test directly with Emdeon Business Services LLC? Testing Exchange or Nuesoft Technologies, Inc. If you use a different clearinghouse, please contact them and ask them to work directly with Emdeon or Nuesoft.Back to TopICD-10 Impact on Codes for HealthChoice Preventive ServicesHealthChoice covers certain preventive services at 100% of Allowable Fees when Network Providers use specific diagnosis codes.
