Wiki ICD-10 Training - Pediatric Specific

[LADY_SETSUNA_CJ]

Does anyone know of any ICD-10 training that is pediatric specific? I work for a peds office and our BOD is only willing to pay for training that is pediatric and/or family practice specific.

Also if anyone knows where I could possibly get my hands on a ICD-10 pediatric specific coding book would be great.

Thanks in advance,

The biggest issue with peds and family practice is that you can cover a huge spectrum of codes: from infectious disease, diabetes, respiratory, etc. So that's a lot of codes to cover.

At this point just a overview of the new codes that I can say relates to our practice would be great. Something that can introduce the staff to the new ICD-10 codes.

Peds & ICD-10

The first step to know what your top 25 primary & secondary codes are. Run some reports. It is impossible to start reviewing codes until you know where to concentrate.
