PDGM Home Health Clinical Group Changes That Impact You

▤ Summary

The annual ICD-10-CM changes through the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) go into effect on October 1. As anticipated, the adjustment of ICD-10-CM codes included in each PDGM clinical group is likely to be modified annually. However, the rationale behind removing many of these diagnoses is quite clear since most of the dropped codes are not typically seen in home health. For your benefit, Axxess has provided a complete list of ICD-10-CM code changes taking effect in October. The complex and ever-changing nature of ICD-10-CM coding and PDGM continue to demonstrate why organizations need technology partners that are in-step with regulatory changes and provide solutions focused on keeping you compliant.
