2 Coding Guidelines Effective October 1, 2007 Nrrtive chnges pper in bold text. Items underlined hve been moved within the guidelines since November 15, The guidelines include the updted V Code Tble The Centers for Medicre nd Medicid Services (CMS) nd the Ntionl Center for Helth Sttistics (NCHS), two deprtments within the U.S. Federl Government s Deprtment of Helth nd Humn Services (DHHS) provide the following guidelines for coding nd reporting using the Interntionl Clssifiction of Diseses, 9 th Revision, Clinicl Modifiction (ICD-9-CM). These guidelines should be used s compnion document to the officil version of the ICD-9CM s published on CD-ROM by the U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO). These guidelines hve been pproved by the four orgniztions tht mke up the Cooperting Prties for the ICD-9-CM: the mericn Hospitl ssocition (H), the mericn Helth Informtion Mngement ssocition (HIM), CMS, nd NCHS. These guidelines re included on the officil government version of the ICD-9-CM, nd lso pper in Coding Clinic for ICD-9-CM published by the H. These guidelines re set of rules tht hve been developed to ccompny nd complement the officil conventions nd instructions provided within the ICD-9-CM itself. These guidelines re bsed on the coding nd sequencing instructions in Volumes I, II nd III of ICD-9-CM, but provide dditionl instruction. dherence to these guidelines when ssigning ICD-9-CM dignosis nd procedure codes is required under the Helth Insurnce Portbility nd ccountbility ct (HIP). The dignosis codes (Volumes 1-2) hve been dopted under HIP for ll helthcre settings. Volume 3 procedure codes hve been dopted for inptient procedures reported by hospitls. joint effort between the helthcre provider nd the coder is essentil to chieve complete nd ccurte documenttion, code ssignment, nd reporting of dignoses nd procedures. These guidelines hve been developed to ssist both the helthcre provider nd the coder in identifying those dignoses nd procedures tht re to be reported. The importnce of consistent, complete documenttion in the medicl record cnnot be overemphsized. Without such documenttion ccurte coding cnnot be chieved. The entire record should be reviewed to determine the specific reson for the encounter nd the conditions treted. The term encounter is used for ll settings, including hospitl dmissions. In the context of these guidelines, the term provider is used throughout the guidelines to men physicin or ny qulified helth cre prctitioner who is leglly ccountble for estblishing the ptient s dignosis. Only this set of guidelines, pproved by the Cooperting Prties, is officil. The guidelines re orgnized into sections. Section I includes the structure nd conventions of the clssifiction nd generl guidelines tht pply to the entire clssifiction, nd chpter-specific guidelines tht correspond to the chpters s they re rrnged in the clssifiction. Section II includes guidelines for selection of principl dignosis for non-outptient settings. Section III includes guidelines for reporting dditionl dignoses in non-outptient settings. Section IV is for outptient coding nd reporting. Section I. Conventions, generl coding guidelines nd chpter specific guidelines. Conventions for the ICD-9-CM 1. Formt: 2. bbrevitions.
