The 2009 ICD-9-CM Professional for Hospitals, Volumes 1, 2 & 3, pairs the most up-to-date code set with critical coding and reimbursement alerts for the new MS-DRG system on the same pages as the code you need. Depend on professional coding expertise for precise, efficient and timely reimbursement, the first time. Be completely HIPAA compliant using revised official coding guidelines, references for official advice from AHA Coding Clinic, coding instructions and conventions, as well as updated Medicare code edits. The easy-to-use format includes definitions, illustrations, symbols and color coding.

 
 
  • New Feature! Ingenix Exclusive — Hospital Acquired Condition (HAC) Alerts. Know which conditions when not present upon admission will not impact DRG assignment. 
  • Ingenix Edge—Color coding system. Improve coding accuracy and efficiency with intuitive symbols and color codes that alert you to crucial coding and reimbursement issues.
  • IPPS compliance symbols. Quickly identify all major Medicare Code Edits (MCE) for diagnoses used to audit claims submitted under the new MS-DRG classification system—unacceptable PDx, questionable admission PDx, age, sex, CC and MCC, and manifestation codes.
  • Procedure Medicare Code Edit alerts. Improve claim accuracy by being alerted to ALL the major Medicare edits for the new MS-DRG system pertaining to procedures; valid OR procedures, noncovered, limited coverage, nonoperating room procedures affecting DRG assignment, valid OR procedures, bilateral edits and sex edits.
  • Ingenix Edge—CC and MCC condition symbol with principal diagnosis exclusions listed right with the code. Quickly identify complications and comorbidities that affect MS-DRG assignment. Know at a glance if the CC or MCC code you are assigning will affect MS-DRG assignment based upon the principal diagnosis being reported for the case—helping to improve the accuracy of DRG selection and improved reimbursement.
  • Ingenix Edge—Additional digit symbol in the tabular section and the disease and procedure indexes. Color-coded symbols alert the coder when the code is invalid without a fourth or fifth digit.
  • Ingenix Edge—DRG alert symbol. Know if you’re assigning a DRG targeted by the OIG as having potential for “upcoding”—reducing the risk for audits and potential fines.
  • HIV major related diagnosis code alert. Know when a diagnosis entered as a secondary diagnosis with HIV will group the case to the higher-paying DRG 974–976, helping to improve reimbursement.
  • Definitions and illustrations. Verify correct code selection using clinically oriented definitions and illustrations that give the user an in-depth understanding of anatomy and disease processes.
  • Manifestation code alert. Clearly identify and properly use codes that represent manifestations of underlying disease, and be alerted when two codes are required, improving coding accuracy and reducing denied claims.
  • New and revised code symbols and dated pages. Quickly identify new code information and the date of the most recent change so you can perform accurate retrospective claim audits. 
  • Dictionary-style headers, QuickFlip™ color tabs, legends and keys on each page. Save time and improve coding efficiency by locating a specific section more quickly.
