Overview:

Critical Care is an often over used and frequently under-utilized set of codes. Understanding when it is appropriate to use the codes is imperative. The diagnoses, procedures and documentation are areas where additional errors can occur that preclude payment.

You Will Learn:

  • Diagnostic severity – advanced coding rules for Sepsis, SIRS, HIV and other severe illnesses are complex and each patient presents their own unique problem.
  • Procedures - appropriate documentation, and carve out when performed with critical care
  • Forms – is a critical care form the solution for your practice to capture all necessary information

Understanding what happens when a patient is critically ill will help the coder to better identify when critical care services are involved. It will also help in understanding why accuracy in diagnosis documentation and coding are imperative.
