2018 ICD 10 Codes

[Kraig]

The new 2018 codes are currently available for download under Admin – Diag Codes. The buttons currently say 2017, but the downloads have been updated to add the new codes. You have the option for the complete list, or the modified list which contains only eye-related codes.

Please be aware that if you are using a custom list that it will be replaced with the linked list.

We will have an upcoming Crystal software update that will add the codes to your existing list, unfortunately, however, we do not have an ETA for that release.

I have noticed there are many codes in the "modified" version that are incorrectly attached to description or out right don't exists. I am working on my own modified codes because this was an issue last year, too.

We have a patient allergic to penicillin and Almonds. They got the penicillin right but the nut allergy was attached to a completely different code, but description was correct, next to incorrect code.

I just wanted to give you a heads up in case you tried to add to your list of diagnosis codes and claim is kicked back. I always use link below to verify codes before keeping or deleting based on our need to use.  I have only found a handful that are out right incorrect and about a dozen or so with old 2016 codes (so not enough detail) still in modified list as well. just wanted to give a heads up.
