I am doing training to be a medical coder. I have been struggling with the ICD-10-CM and what to code first since I started my training. Your video's are amazing and gets right to the point. So glad I found your video's, they are helping me to understand the ICD-10-CM process and I look forward to watching more video's. I hope to take the CCS examination in March. It is nice to watch your video's with no gimmicks, just to the point. NICE.
Sequencing of ABLA and GI bleed depends on the circumstances of admission/treatment/evaluation. If equal, either may be sequenced as the principal diagnosis. There are several coding clinics on this subject that you can refer to.
Hi! That would depend on the physicians final diagnostic statement. If they were documenting malignant pleural effusion at discharge and then the cytology came back negative for malignant cells, I would query the physician to confirm the final diagnosis. If the final diagnosis was just pleural effusion with negative cytology and no documentation of it being related to the cancer, your principal diagnosis would be the pleural effusion with the cancer as a secondary diagnosis. I hope that helps!
There is no coding guideline that requires a diagnosis be included in the discharge summary. Unless your facility has an internal guideline requiring that the diagnosis be included in the DCS, you can code the sepsis that the physician verified via query.
Hai mam my self Krishna Naik am from India am fresher for this coding job in PHYcare solutions office am a Op coder please once explain clearly cordio and pulmonary Op coding from basic
Hi! Are you asking about CPT coding? I am an inpatient coder, so I don't have experience in CPT, unfortunately. My expertise is in ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS.
Hi! Ok, I see. I do have a couple PCS videos on my channel if you are interested and will definitely be working on some more in the future. Thanks for watching!

Great job!!!
Thank you, I appreciate that!😊
Can you provide a CABG PCS video please?
Hi, Yes, I can add that to my list. Thanks for the idea!
For the last example, if the cytology came back negative for cancer cells would the sequencing then change? Or still remain the same?

If md queried for sepsis and agreed than diagnosis dropped off and not in DC summary do you query again
