Wiki New Pink Highlight for MACRA

[michelleholt]

Hello,

I was just curious about the MACRA codes in the new ICD 10 CM book from the AAPC. We are an Orthopedic practice in NY and I noticed the Osteo codes are some of the ones highlighted pink. I was just wondering why this is? Also, DM and I10 for hypertension are hightlighted as well.

Thanks ahead of time for answering my question.

Pink Codes

The pink MACRA codes in the ICD-10 code book indicate diagnosis codes applicable to measures for reporting in the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS).
