The International Classification of Diseases

• ICD is the standard used throughout the world for:– Classifying causes of mortality (death

registration)– Morbidity statistics

• Records and surveys

• Health care claims

• Basis for prospective payment

World Health Organization

As of July 2000, W.H.O. had authorized the publication of ICD-10 versions in 37 languages, with 30 countries having implemented ICD-10 for mortality and/or morbidity applications.

The remainder of the countries were expected to implement ICD-10 before end of 2000.

ICD-10 was implemented for mortality reporting in the United States 1/1/99.

ICD-10 Evaluation Contract

In September 1994 NCHS awarded a contract to the Center for Health Policy Studies (CHPS) to evaluate the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10).

Page 11: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

11

Contract Findings

• ICD-10 not significantly better than ICD-9-CM for morbidity applications to warrant implementation.

• A clinical modification of the ICD-10 would be a significant improvement and worth implementing.

Page 12: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

12

Why a Clinical Modification of ICD-10 ?

• Need to:– Expand distinctions for ambulatory and

managed care encounters – Expand to include new concepts – Expand to include emerging diseases and

more recent medical knowledge – Incorporate changes made to ICD-9-CM

since ICD-10 implementation

Page 13: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

Page 43: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

43

ICD-10-CM Comparability Study

• New revisions can create discontinuities in trend data

• Discontinuities can be measured by comparability ratios– dual coding of data using old & new revision– express results of the comparison as a ratio for

a particular cause classified in ICD-10 divided by deaths expressed in ICD-9

Page 44: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

44

ICD-10-CM Comparability Study

• Assists users of coded data to discriminate between real changes in utilization by diagnosis and those resulting from artifacts of the coding system

• ICD-10/ICD-9 comparability study for mortality records (2.3m) nearly completed (preliminary posted on NCHS website)

• NCHS conducted study in 1979 when hospitals moved from ICDA-8 to ICD-9-CM

Page 45: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

45

Importance of the Improved Clinical Detail

• The creation, review and revision of health care policy relies on the availability of accurate and timely health care data generated by both providers and payers of health care and by statistical surveys and other research efforts.

• A critical element of these information systems is the classification used to interpret and analyze patients’ diseases and health conditions

Page 46: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

46

Uses of ICD-9-CM

• Tracking national trends - NCHS surveys • Tracking state trends - AHRQ HCUP• Tracking Medicare trends - Medpar• Quality Indicators JCAHO and HEDIS • Improved reimbursement (DRGs, APCs)• Bench marking• Research• Public health reporting• Strategic planning

Page 47: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

47

Disadvantages of Remaining with ICD-9-CM

• Due to the classification’s age (20+ years) and content it is no longer clinically accurate

• ICD-9-CM update process cannot keep pace with changes

• Inability to capture data relating to factors other than disease affecting health

• Non-comparability with State/National mortality data

• Non-comparability with international data

Page 48: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

48

ICD-10-CMBenefits of Enhancements

• Comprehensive scope of ICD-10-CM will contribute to:– More relevant data for epidemiological

research and decision-support purposes• Patient safety (medical errors)

• Ambulatory/managed care encounter

• Surveillance & prevention activities

• Outcomes research

Page 49: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

49

ICD-10-CMBenefits of Enhancements

• Comprehensive scope of ICD-10-CM will contribute to:– Increased sensitivity when making refinements in

applications such as grouping and reimbursement methodologies

– Reduction in additional information being forwarded to payers to adjudicate claims

Page 50: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

50

ICD-10-CMBenefits of Enhancements

• Harmonization with DSM-IV• Chapter 2 (Neoplasms) and morphology codes

correspond to ICD-O-2 which have been used by cancer registry programs since 1995

• Harmonization (90-95%) with NANDA nursing classification

• Greater flexibility to add new codes • Reflects current usage of medical terminology

Page 51: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

51

ICD-10-CMImplementation Issues

• Training: – Will be required for various users at various levels– Should not require extensive coder retraining

• Structure, conventions, coding rules basically the same

– Some short-term loss of productivity is expected during the learning curve

• Changes to data systems & software– Groupers, encoders, payment policy, performance

measurement systems

• Changes in data retrieval/analysis

Page 52: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

52

ICD-10 Implementation Experience in Other Countries

• Concerns:– Resources, cost of training, timing

• Training: – 2-3 day workshops for coders (new and experienced)– For clinicians, software suppliers and others– In HIM programs– Post implementation workshops – Six month learning curve

• Changes in data retrieval/analysis– Crosswalks, database versions

Page 53: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

53

HIPAA and ICD-10-CM Implementation

The Administrative Simplification (AS) provisions of Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) are intended to reduce the costs and administrative burdens of health care by making possible the standardized, electronic transmission of many administrative and financial transactions that are currently carried out manually on paper.

Page 54: 1 The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification Donna Pickett, RHIA, MPH

54

HIPAA and ICD-10-CMImplementation

• Implementation of ICD-10-CM tied to the standards adoption process specified in the Administrative Simplification provisions of HIPAA (1996)– Public hearings– Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM)– Public comment period– Final rule
