Common questions about ICD-10-CM, CPT, HCPCS Level II, modifiers, clinical documentation and medical billing.
Medical coding converts documented diagnoses, procedures and healthcare services into standardized codes used in healthcare administration and billing.
ICD-10-CM is used for diagnosis coding in applicable healthcare settings. Code selection should remain supported by the documented patient encounter.
CPT coding is commonly used to report documented physician and professional healthcare services and procedures.
HCPCS Level II codes may be used for applicable supplies, equipment and additional healthcare services in relevant billing workflows.
Modifiers may provide additional information about a documented procedure or service when their use is supported by the encounter and applicable coding requirements.
Missing or unclear clinical information should not be assumed. Unresolved questions should be returned through an appropriate provider or coding clarification workflow.
No. Payment may also depend on eligibility, coverage, authorization, documentation, payer requirements, medical necessity considerations and final claim adjudication.
Louisiana healthcare practices can outsource selected coding activities or coordinate medical coding with broader billing and revenue-cycle services.
