American Medical News , 02/04/09
Silva C - Physicians will have an additional two years to learn the next generation of diagnostic codes, thanks to a final Medicare regulation released Jan. 15, one of several key rules that the Bush administration sent out the door in its last days. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services had proposed in August 2008 that physicians, hospitals and payers adopt an updated version of the International Classification of Diseases code sets, ICD-10, by Oct. 1, 2011. Physicians use ICD-9 codes to list patient diagnoses on claims, while hospitals use them for diagnoses and procedures.
