I have a colleague who is insisting coders are no longer allowed to changed diagnosis codes after 10/1/16, even if the documentation provided proves a different code. She is under the impression this is a CMS rule. Does anyone have information on this or the specific link from CMS that talks about this? It doesn't make sense to me that a code couldn't be changed if its found to be billed in error based on the documentation??
